Hello,

If a Contract states that I will be paid a sum of money per day for work in a foreign country and that my foreign employer will pay local taxes;

Am I eligble for UK foreign tax releif on the taxes that the foreign employer paid on my behalf?
Further is there any laibailty for UK benefits in kind for the foreign taxes paid?

Thanks
