Tax Resident of different country than Nationality

[pal99999]

Hi!

I am a tax resident of the UK but a national of another European country. I would like to open an account but when I put my nationality, the system asks me for that country's tax code identifier and I only have a UK national insurance number (NINO). Should I put that I am a UK national or is there another way around it?

Thanks

Hi Pal,

I have the same issue and been talking with IG people for over a week and they dont know how to solve it. Did they were able to solve your problem? 

Many thanks

Hi @pfc,

Did you reach out to newaccountenquiries.uk@ig.com ?
I do know that you will need to provide proof of address. If your residential address is outside of UK and you provide a a proof of tax residency in UK, it is possible that your account can't be open.

The account opening team, will be able to confirm the above.

Thank you - Arvin
