Stephen J. Dann North Sea Oil Workers Click here for Other Pages on this Website As a worker on an oil platform or vessel in the UK Sector of the North Sea HM Revenue and Customs will insist your employer deduct income tax from your earnings under PAYE since they cannot determine the correct tax status of every worker until they know each individual's personal circumstances. If you hold a non-UK passport, or are a British passport holder living overseas, it is possible, by using provisions of international Double Taxation Treaties, for all of the UK income tax deducted under PAYE to be refunded. If you would like me to review your tax status please email me using the facility below, providing your full name, the names of the vessels/platforms you have worked on, the name and address of the companies you have been contracted to, and the dates you worked. I will respond within 24 hours with an initial review of your tax status.
