    Default Working for UK company from NZ - where I am liable to pay tax to?

    I have recently moved back from the UK to NZ but I am still working in NZ for my UK employer - remotely. I am a New Zealand citizen. Will someone please give me some insight on where I am liable to pay tax to and a direction to learn about how to do this?
    Thank you.

    Once you are a NZ tax resident then you will be liable to pay taxes to NZ for your world wide income.

    You will need to contact the IRD and have to file an IR3 tax form and pay them whatever you owe.

    Note that if you continue to pay taxes in the UK then they have a double taxation agreement with NZ so you don't end up having to pay tax on the same income twice. If you haven't paid as much tax in the UK as you are required to pay in NZ then you will owe the difference.
