Paragraph 157
This paragraph applies in determining whether the test in paragraph 110(1)(c) is met in relation to a tax year before the tax year 2013-14 (a “pre-commencement tax year”).
Paragraph 110(1) is to have effect as if for paragraph (c) there were substituted—
“(c)at least 4 out of the 7 tax years immediately preceding the year of departure was a tax year meeting the following conditions—
(i)the individual was resident in the UK for that year, and
(ii)there was no time in that year when the individual was Treaty non-resident (see paragraph 112(3)).”
Whether an individual was resident in the UK for a pre-commencement tax year is to be determined in accordance with the rules in force for determining an individual's residence for that pre-commencement tax year (and not in accordance with the statutory residence test).
