Details

From 6 April 2015, individuals, trustees, and certain companies who are not resident in the UK and sell a UK residential property need to notify HM Revenue and Customs of the transaction. This is because the proportion of any overall gain that relates to the period after 5 April 2015 is chargeable to tax.
