three times the earlier estimate of 77,000.
This dramatic rise comes at a time of increasing economic uncertainty, rising living costs, and growing concerns around the UK’s future tax landscape.
With the Treasury reportedly considering up to 100 potential tax measures ahead of the Autumn Budget on 26 November, many individuals and families are now
evaluating their long term options.
Why More Britons Are Looking Abroad
Alongside economic pressures, factors such as quality of life, personal safety, and long term financial planning are influencing the decision for many people
to explore international relocation.
At Blackmore Global, we have seen a noticeable increase in enquiries from UK based clients asking the same question:
“What next? Where can we find stability, growth, freedom, and a better quality of life?”
More and more of them are looking beyond Europe, and turning their attention towards the United Arab Emirates, particularly
Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Why the UAE Is Attracting UK Relocators
The UAE continues to position itself as one of the world’s most progressive and globally connected hubs. Key advantages include:
1. Long term Residency Options
The UAE’s 10 year Golden Visa offers long-term security for you and your family, with flexible pathways for investors, entrepreneurs, and highly skilled professionals.
2. Favourable Tax Environment
The UAE remains one of the most tax-efficient jurisdictions globally. With no income tax, no capital gains tax, and no inheritance tax, it offers a compelling alternative for individuals seeking financial optimisation.
3. Exceptional Safety
The UAE is consistently ranked among the safest countries in the world, with Abu Dhabi holding the top spot for eight consecutive years.
4. High-Quality Infrastructure & Education
From world-class schools to cutting-edge healthcare and globally connected airports, the UAE continues to expand its position as a lifestyle and business destination.
5. Outstanding Property Opportunities
Dubai and Abu Dhabi offer a wide range of high growth real estate opportunities for both end users and investors, from waterfront communities to new build luxury developments.
