Default Frog61's question about transferring money from ME

I'd also ask, what are peoples experiances of moving money to the UK?
If I want to move say £10K per month to my bank account in the UK, is there anything I need to be wary of, other than FX fees?
Assuming I will to be in Saudi for at least 1 year to ensure this is tax free?

Needs to be a full tax year for split year treatment and you'll need to tick the boxes for non-residency. The .gov website is pretty good at explaining.

I've moved your post and responses in to a thread of it's own, as we try to keep the NEOM threads on topic. Hopefully more people will see it now as well.

HTH.

Highly recommend contacting CurrencyTransfer.com. He will walk you through steps to set up with SAB / SNB etc and they have a transfer algorithm that will time your £10k across, say, 4 currency spikes in the month, earning you a far better rate over the year.
