835E Branch or agency treated as UK representative

(1) This section applies if a non-UK resident carries on (alone or in partnership) any trade, profession or vocation through a branch or agency in the United Kingdom. (2) The branch or agency is the UK representative of the non-UK resident in relation to— (a) the amount of any income from the trade, profession or vocation that arises (directly or indirectly) through or from the branch or agency, and (b) the amount of any income from property or rights which are used by, or held by or for, the branch or agency. (3) The following rules are to be applied for the purposes of subsection (2) and Chapter 2C in relation to an amount within that subsection. Rule 1 The UK representative continues to be the UK representative of the non-UK resident in relation to the amount even after ceasing to be a branch or agency through which the non-UK resident carries on the trade, profession or vocation concerned. Rule 2 The UK representative is treated in relation to the amount as a distinct and separate person from the non-UK resident (if the representative would not otherwise be so treated). Rule 3 If the branch or agency is carried on by persons in partnership, the partnership, as such, is treated in relation to the amount as the UK representative of the non-UK resident. (4) For further rules that apply where a trade or profession carried on by a non-UK resident in the United Kingdom is carried on in partnership, see section 835F. (5) This section needs to be read with sections 835G to 835J (which provide for descriptions of persons who are not to be regarded as the UK representative of a non-UK resident if certain conditions are met).

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
