Detail of outcome

Given the consultation focused on the principles of a re-domiciliation regime, it was understandable that some respondents expressed the view that further detail on the design of the regime would be helpful. The consultation offered a high-level overview of the proposed regime design, but it represented only the early stages of the policy development process.

BEIS, in partnership with HM Treasury and HMRC, will continue to refine this policy, engaging publicly as appropriate.

Summary

We are seeking views on the introduction of a corporate re-domiciliation regime to support companies seeking to relocate to the UK.

This consultation ran from
2pm on 27 October 2021 to 11:45pm on 7 January 2022

Consultation description

This consultation seeks views on the introduction of a UK re-domiciliation regime, which would make it possible for companies to re-domicile and therefore easier to relocate to the UK.

The UK is a competitive, global hub for business and is home to one of the world’s leading financial centres. This mechanism will allow companies to take advantage of its world-class infrastructure and skills, while promoting jobs, innovation and investment in the UK.

In this consultation, we set out our proposals and seek views on:

• the advantages of enabling companies to re-domicile
• the level of demand that exists, among which types of companies and sectors
• the appropriate checks and entry criteria
• the merits of establishing an outward re-domiciliation regime
• any tax implications associated with the introduction of a re-domiciliation regime
