- 1非定居者（英國稅制用語：人在英國工作，但海外收入可不在英國課稅）
In Britain, a non-dom is a person — often someone from another country working in the UK — whose legal “home country” for tax is not Britain. Because of that old rule, they might pay UK tax on money they earn in Britain, but not on money they make in other countries, unless they bring that money in. Newspapers use the short form all the time, usually about rich people in London, and the idea has been argued over for years because it can look like a special deal. It is informal ; in careful law talk the longer idea is “non-domiciled.” This is UK news English, not something you need in a café. here is not a house; it is a legal idea of where your true home is for tax, which can be different from where you sleep this year.
