Frequently asked questions

Do I need to appoint both firms?

The UK work is carried out by Metta Accountants and the Indian work by our partner firm, Metta Accountants India. These are two separate engagements, with the two teams working together on your case.

Will I be taxed twice on the same income?

It should not happen if relief is claimed properly. The UK–India double taxation agreement and foreign tax credits exist for this, but they have to be claimed correctly in each country, which is much easier when both sides are planned together.

I have just moved to the UK from India. Where do I start?

Start with a free call. We look at your UK residence status, whether the foreign income and gains regime applies, and what needs to be reported in each country.
