Non-Resident Directors (NRDs)

Non-resident directors (NRDs) are a growing area of scrutiny by HMRC. Publicly accessible data from Companies House and frequent international board duties make NRDs a common compliance risk. Generally, double tax treaty exemptions do not cover board duties performed in the UK, and UK PAYE and NIC may be required—even if no separate remuneration is provided.

How We Help:

• Reviewing NRD arrangements to assess UK PAYE and NIC obligations
  
  
• Identifying treaty exemption eligibility where applicable
  
  
• Structuring payments to minimise unnecessary UK tax exposure
  
  
• Providing full payroll and tax compliance support for affected NRDs

Cross-Border Workers & International Commuters

As remote and international working becomes standard, more employees are splitting their duties across countries or commuting internationally on a weekly basis. This flexibility creates dual payroll and social security compliance challenges.

Our Services for Cross-Border Employment:

• Analysing tax, social security, and payroll impacts across jurisdictions
  
  
• Providing planning strategies to reduce costs and dual withholding obligations
  
  
• Managing multi-country payroll compliance
  
  
• Preparing and submitting A1/Certificate of Coverage applications
