Non-UK Tax Residents have never been able to add additional funds...

[This was made clear to me by my ISA Provider (Barclays) & PWC when Barclays moved me to Singapore in 2008].

Me also & I file Tax Returns there but are you Tax Resident there?

 

The simple answer is >183 days yes, <16 days No.

 

Between that it depends on how many years you’ve been Non-Tax Resident & how many “Family Ties” you have. 

E.G., I’ve been NTR for > 3 years so would need to spend at least 46 days in the UK before I even get to the “Family Ties” qualification part.

Which is the relevent item.  Domicile is not (at all?) relevent to tax status or, here, ability to add to ISAs.

Latest Earning figures released this morning from the ONS indicate a likely rise in the state pension of 4.0% from April next year , as it is highly unlikely that next months inflation figures will exceed this.

Only of you are looking at it as a "potential" increase as you are not retired here yet.

 

Otherwise of course our pension is like the British Weather in winter FROZEN

The other option is those who have "forgotten" to inform the authorities that they no longer reside in the UK........

I know a guy who "forgot" to inform the taxman of his changed status.

They caught him and he had to return it all plus interest at a high rate.

 

In the UK  the taxman usually gets his man.

 

Thailand....not so much ,but the prisons are a lot worse if you are unlucky enough to be caught evading tax I read that it's a year behind bars and a fine

 

Not worth the risk
