Tax Relocation FAQ
How long does a typical tax relocation take?
Most relocations complete within 3-6 months from initial consultation to full settlement. Golden Visa processing in the UAE typically takes 2-4 weeks. Timelines vary by jurisdiction, family size, and complexity of corporate structures.
Do I need to fully move to the UAE to benefit from zero income tax?
UAE tax residency requires spending a minimum of 183 days per year in the country, or 90 days with additional qualifying conditions. We help clients structure their time and documentation to meet residency requirements while maintaining global flexibility.
What happens to my existing tax obligations when I relocate?
Tax exit requirements vary by country. UK residents face departure-year rules and potential CGT on certain assets. We coordinate with specialist counsel in your current jurisdiction to ensure a clean, compliant departure and avoid double taxation.
Does Growth Capital handle the physical move as well?
Yes. Our end-to-end service covers property sourcing, family schooling, healthcare registration, domestic staffing, banking setup, and every detail that makes a new country feel like home. We stay with you through the transition and beyond.
