I am a French civil servant working in the United Kingdom. Do I have to pay UK income tax on my French public remuneration?
The Article 19 of the French-UK income tax treaty provides that compensations paid by a contracting State to an individual, for services rendered in this State, be taxable only in this State, unless the services are rendered in the other State by a person who is a resident of and a national of this other State and not at the same time a national of the first-mentioned State. Pursuant to these provisions, a French civil servant who is not a UK national does not pay UK income tax on the public remuneration he receives from France.
