    Hi,

    I am confused with understanding the difference between domiciled and resident.
    If someone is UK resident, I believe that means the person have UK passport. Am I correct?

    But what does it mean if someone is UK resident but not UK domiciled? What does ‘being domiciled while non UK resident’ mean?

    Residence has nothing to do with holding a passport! It is very specifically defined and this is found in the OT notes,
    A definition of domicile is excluded from the syllabus!
    Therefore you just need to learn the rules that determine whether an individual is UK resident
