Counting Your Days
Mid-year is a good time to check your day-count for UK residency. The SRT determines if you are a UK tax resident based on days spent in the country and your 'ties' to the UK. Most expats aim for under 183 days, but you could be a resident with as few as 16 days depending on your situation.
