JeanJambre and buzzc152 thank you for your time.
So being a bit of an idiot in these matters, If one (UK citizen) was to move to Italy (wonderfull country), would they automatically become a resident, and would they then qualify to pay just the 20-25% + UK NI, or do you think they, as a UK citizen, resident in Italy would still have to pay the full UK tax.
I would happily move to Italy. To stay in the UK on UK taxes makes the transition back to the right seat difficult financially, to pay just 20-25% flat + NI to live in Italy would be much more desirable.
Many thanks for your time.
