That differs from Italy's regime, which charges a recently doubled rate of 200,000 euros per year regardless of wealth bracket.
Non-doms move their moneyReeves had previously said that scrapping the program could generate £2.6 billion ($3.38 billion) for the Treasury over the course of the next government.
We need to understand that we need people to be investing here, to create the jobs, wealth, prosperity that we want.
Labour courts wealth creatorsThe Labour government has said it is determined to address unfairness in the tax system, pledging in its election manifesto to close non-dom tax loopholes.
