I'm a tax resident in Ireland, non-domiciled, working for a US company which pays part of my salary in RSUs. I've recently learned that as a non-domicile taxpayer, I can opt for remittance basis of taxation (instead of the standard "arising basis") for my foreign income, such as capital gains from sale of my RSUs. Does this basically mean that I can hold on to my RSUs, stay here a couple of years, sell all the RSUs before leaving Ireland without paying any CGT (since I wouldn't be remitting the proceeds to Ireland), move somewhere else and not be liable for CGT in the new country either?
