I am a UK Expat who has now been abroad for the past 9 years. As long as you physically leave the UK by April 5th you would have to remain abroad until April 4th 2008 to pay NO UK tax at all on income originated from Qatar. If you come after this date then you will have to remain abroad until April '09 to have no tax liability. You continue to have tax liabilities on income earned onshore in the UK even though you are non-resident.
I am loathe to put my contact details on here but have been through this very same process with my accountant for the past few years. If you would like me to talk you through it please message me and I will pass you my contact details.
