Commentary on Sections Overview Overview Section 475: Residence of trustees
1375.This section sets out rules for determining whether trustees (treated as a single person under section 474) are resident and ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom. It is based on section 685E(2), (3), (4), (6) and (7) of ICTA.
1376.If all the persons who are trustees are UK resident then the single person is UK resident and ordinarily UK resident. If all those persons are non-UK resident then the single person is non-UK resident and not ordinarily UK resident. If the trustees have mixed residence then a tie-breaker applies and the residence of the single person is determined by reference to whether there is a settlor who meets condition C (see subsection (5)(b) and section 476).
