I'm looking at what's involved with living in Spain whilst working remotely, does anyone know of an accountant who deals with Spanish residents from the UK and what should be considered when dealing with the tax implications? #spanishvisa #spanishresident #uktax

Company gift cards.
In the UK companies can give employees £50.00 gift cards free of tax.
They can be given for Christmas, for New Year, for birthdays, anniversaries.
Companies should make full use of this tax relief to help their employees this winter.

Excellent thread on abolishing non-dom tax benefits in UK, & why doing so is a nett benefit to govt tax revenue, by an expert on the subject.

Interesting historical note: "ND regime is not now, and has never been, about attracting migrants. Remittance basis (inc tax benefit to NDs) was a tax *deferral* scheme from colonial times, til the cotton and sugar came onshore"
