La Vida Golden Visas has announced a significant 47% year-on-year increase in enquiries for overseas residency through investment, as a growing number of high-earning UK residents seek to mitigate rising domestic tax burdens.LONDON - March 26, 2025 - PRLog -- The sharp uptick in demand, recorded in Q1 2025, reflects ongoing momentum in the global investment migration industry – a trend that has accelerated since the UK's departure from the European Union. While initial interest in golden visa programmes stemmed largely from the desire for flexible European travel rights, today's enquiries are increasingly driven by long-term relocation strategies and wealth preservation in low-tax jurisdictions."We're seeing a clear shift in motivation," said Paul Williams, CEO of La Vida. "For many UK entrepreneurs and high earners, tax policy has reached a tipping point. The direction of travel is clear – taxes are increasing, and investors are responding by seeking greater control over their financial and personal futures through alternative residence options."UK Tax Burden Exceeds European NormsLa Vida's internal analysis, drawing on data from the OECD, reveals that UK-based business owners now face a marginal combined tax rate of 54.5% – comprising 25% corporation tax and 39.35% dividend tax. This places the UK among the most heavily taxed jurisdictions in Europe, surpassed only by Ireland and Denmark. By comparison, the average combined tax burden across Europe for business owners stands at 41.0%, highlighting a 13.5% gap that continues to widen.Tax on business owners rose significantly when corporation tax climbed from 19% to 25% in April 2023. The increase in National Insurance rates in April 2025 will further tighten the fiscal environment for business and wealth generators."The British government seems unaware of the agility of today's businesses," Williams added. "The companies choosing to leave the UK are often digital, mobile, and scalable. These are exactly the kinds of enterprises the UK should be nurturing – not driving away."Investment Migration: A Global Wealth StrategyLa Vida offers access to 18 major investment visa programmes, partnering with governments across Europe, the Americas, the Caribbean, and the Middle East. Collectively, these programmes generate over $20 billion annually in foreign direct investment and provide individuals and families with secure residency or citizenship status in exchange for passive investments.Among the most popular golden visa options for low taxation are:
