How Are Employee Remuneration and Stock Options Taxed in the UK? | Expat Tax Insights

Do you have employee stock options and live or work across borders? This video breaks down how stock options are taxed in the UK, especially for expats or internationally mobile employees.

We’ll cover:
✅ The difference between grant, vesting, and exercise
✅ When and how Income Tax is triggered
✅ What happens when shares are sold after exercise (Capital Gains)
✅ How time spent overseas during the vesting period impacts your UK tax liability
✅ The importance of foreign exchange (FX) when your shares are held in other currencies

💡 Options are not taxed like RSUs — and timing really matters.

🧾 If you’ve moved countries, work for a global business, or have options granted while abroad, it’s crucial to get the proportional UK tax treatment right.
