Dubai Police arrest suspected car thieves



Four men have been arrested on charges of stealing cars left unattended with the engine idling. The first two thefts occurred on March 31 and five more followed in two weeks. G H, from Pakistan, was arrested after a car chase from Dubai to Ajman. A police patrol watched as he stole a four-wheel-drive from a petrol station after its owner went into the station's shop, police said. They said G H led police to his accomplices, including two Pakistanis and an Arab man who bought the vehicles, four of which have been recovered. The case has been referred to public prosecution.

Why your domicile status is important

Your UK residence status is assessed using the statutory residence test. While your residence status – ie where you live - is assessed every year, your domicile status is assessed over your lifetime.

Your domicile of origin generally comes from your parents and if your parents were not married, then it is decided by your father. Your domicile is generally the country your father considered his permanent home when you were born. 

UK residents who have their permanent home ("domicile") outside the UK may not have to pay UK tax on foreign income. For example, they do not pay tax on foreign income or gains if they are less than £2,000 in the tax year and do not transfer that gain to a UK bank account.

A UK-domiciled person, however, is liable for UK tax on their worldwide income and gains when they are resident in the UK.
