A company is resident where it is managed and controlled. No matter where your corp is in the world it will be UK resident for as long as your rear end is in the UK. Not a difficult concept and been subject of a numerous high court decisions. So do whatever you like doing but if you want to sleep at night, either move your a*s to a different country with 0% tax or if not, then accept that this is the reality, which you might or might not get away with.
Thats just the part of it, the cfc regime also does pass though - disregards the entity as if you id the busines privately, anyway good luck

This is a recent case that acts as a sharp reminder that care and attention is needed to ensure that a non-UK company does not become UK tax resident.
