Every year around 300,000 British citizens leave the UK to live abroad. And every year, around 200,000 British people return too.

For most, the reasons for returning to the UK are entirely positive. They’ve enjoyed a working life or early retirement in a new place and are returning to the familiarity of home. They’ve been there and done that.

Returning to the UK after living abroad can be exciting. But to make the move as smooth and hassle-free as possible there are many things to take into consideration before you return.
