Your UK-originated dividend (and any other) income was always liable for UK tax, even while you were non-resident. Any dividend income that originated outside the UK will become liable for UK tax from the day you repatriate. HTH. All the best, Paul
No problem, appreciate your thoughts. But IMHO you make it sound as though the UK is akin to the US [and Djibouti] in almost alone in having a tax on worldwide income.
How do you think they define 'originated' [as you suggest]? Account, or location of corporate HQ of say specific companies who's shares you own?
