Are you resident of the EU and pay UK tax?
18-Jan-2012If you are resident in an EU country and working for a UK company, paying UK income tax, you can now, from the 2011/2012 tax year, claim the seafarers allowance, also known as the 100% claim.
As long as you have the required amount of sea time outside the UK twelve mile limit, and at least one foreign port visit, then you could well be entitled to a refund of some or all of your income tax you have paid. If you feel that this could apply to you please do not hesitate to contact us for further information on how to claim back your overpaid tax.
You have to be aware though that you may well be liable to pay income tax in your own country, so you need to check this out with a tax adviser based in your country.
