About this lesson
The key principle is that you must remove the overseas income source with the highest tax rate first, then compare UK and overseas tax to determine double taxation relief for each source. You'll work through a detailed illustration with employment income and two overseas sources (rental and trading), learning both the full calculation method and the faster "working at the margin" approach. By the end, you'll understand how to methodically apply double taxation relief across multiple income streams and when you can use shortcuts to save time in the exam.
