Myself and my husband are considering an offer of employment in the UAE.
He will be moving within his company, from Dublin office to a UAE office, and was advised that in order to retain his valuable defined benefit pension, he would be 'on assignment' and therefore salary would be paid from Dublin. Advice was that he would be taxed as per Irish standards on this income.
My question is: can he claim back this tax paid on return home / at the end of the tax year if he is non-resident as defined by revenue.
Given that UAE incomes are tax free this is a pretty serious consideration!
Thanks in advance for any help on this.
