UK Crypto Tax Expert Needed

Crypto token compensation tax planning — I’m a UK taxpayer and have also residency in Lithuania. Due a sizable token award vesting and unlocking over 4 years. I need an expert to review existing advice, confirm or critique it, and recommend legally compliant ways to reduce my UK tax burden.

Scope:

Review Prior Advice: Audit what I’ve been told so far; flag gaps or errors.

Tax-Point Mapping: Identify all UK tax events (Income Tax, NIC, CGT) at grant, vest/unlock and sale.

Structuring & Reliefs: Propose lawful methods to lower effective rates, e.g.:

UK Ltd (personal service company) vs personal holding

Offshore vehicle or trust (with anti-avoidance in mind)

Section 431 “employment-related securities” elections

Share-option schemes (EMI, growth shares)

Other HMRC reliefs

Compliance Guidance: Explain PAYE/NIC withholding, self-assessment, DOTAS/DAC8 crypto reporting, record-keeping.

Optional Residency Planning: Impact of UK residency or domicile changes on future tax.

Deliverables:

Consultation Call (NDA) to review docs and advice.

Written Report covering:

Tax treatment per stage (grant, vest, sale)

Step-by-step restructuring (company/trust setup, elections, timing)

Scenario comparison (personal vs company vs trust) with rough four-year tax estimates

Key pitfalls (IR35, disguised remuneration, share-matching rules)
