(Picture: PA Wire)The number of registered non-dom taxpayers in the UK has slumped by almost half over the past seven years new research reveals today.
The total who qualify for the benefits of non-domiciled status - which allows them to shelter offshore earnings and wealth from UK tax while living in Britain - has dropped from a peak of 123,000 in 2015 to 68,300 last year.
