Get the Free GuideThis guide is for UK-based business owners who are earning enough that the tax system is materially affecting their wealth — and who want a proper, defensible answer on what to do about it.
You're paying UK corporation tax and personal tax on income you generate from clients all over the world.
You've heard people talk about Dubai companies and 0% tax but you don't know what's actually legal and what isn't.
You know "just open an offshore company" is not the full answer but no one has explained what the full answer is.
You've asked your current accountant about restructuring and got a vague answer or a flat no.
You want to make the right move once, not the wrong move twice.

Most offshore advice covers one pillar. This guide covers all three — because getting any one of them wrong invalidates the whole structure.
The jurisdictions that actually work for UK founders, why Dubai is not always the right answer, and the specific structures that hold up under HMRC scrutiny.
The residency rules that determine your personal tax liability, the days-counted thresholds that catch people out, and the practical steps to establish residency that is recognised, not assumed.
The pillar most "just move offshore" advice ignores. Why a Dubai company run from your London flat is still a UK tax-resident company, and how to structure management and control correctly.

"I'd been told for two years to 'just set up in Dubai.' Elliot's guide was the first thing that actually explained why that advice was wrong for my situation and what the right structure looked like. I've since restructured properly."
"I'm a content creator earning across multiple countries and my old accountant had no answer for me. Make Accounting Simple gave me a structure that's defensible and saves me a six-figure tax bill every year."
"The three-pillar framework is the clearest explanation of offshore setup I've read. It saved me from making a move that would have cost me far more than it saved."
The three-pillar framework explained in plain English with no jargon.
The most common offshore mistakes UK founders make and how to avoid each one.
A practical checklist for assessing whether your current setup is exposed or defensible.
Clear next steps depending on whether you're earning under £250K, £250K–£1M, or above £1M per year.
These come with every download and are designed to be immediately useful alongside the main guide.

I'm the founder of Make Accounting Simple, a modern remote-first accounting firm based in London. I'm ACCA-qualified and built my foundational experience at Grant Thornton before launching my own practice with my business partner Adam. We work with UK founders, online content creators, and high earners who need clear, jargon-free advice on tax structure, residency, and offshore setup. I built this guide because almost every founder I speak to has been given incomplete advice about offshore structuring; incomplete advice in this area is expensive. This is the full picture, in plain English, free.
