That person, or each of those persons, is liable to the de-registration charge whether or not—

a

that person, and

b

any other person who is liable to the de-registration charge,

are residentF2... or domiciled in the United Kingdom.

The de-registration charge is a charge at the rate of 40% in respect of the aggregate of—

the market value at that time of any assets held for the purposes of the pension scheme.
