Understanding your move to Australia
Your tax residency status in Australia will determine how your income, assets and capital gains are taxed.
- Australian vs foreign tax residency – Residents are taxed on their worldwide income, while non-residents are only taxed on Australian-sourced income. Temporary residents enjoy certain exemptions.
- Key tax residency tests – The 183-day, domicile, and ordinary concept tests assess your ties to Australia , each with different tax implications.
- Impact on foreign income – If you’re a resident, rental income, dividends and other earnings from overseas may be taxable in Australia.
Understanding these rules can help you optimise your tax position and avoid unnecessary liabilities when moving.
Preparing for a smooth transition
Taking a proactive approach can make your financial transition smoother and help avoid common pitfalls.
- Temporary vs permanent residency tax implications – Temporary residents are generally exempt from tax on foreign income, but this changes if you apply for permanent residency or citizenship.
- Foreign assets and offshore trusts – If you have business interests, investments or trusts overseas, different tax treatments apply. Planning how to structure these assets before becoming an Australian resident is essential.
Ensuring you have the right structures in place before your move can help protect your wealth, reduce tax exposure and create a smoother financial transition to life in Australia.
