Understanding Capital Gains Tax Compliance and Its Importance

Capital gains tax compliance refers to the accurate reporting and fulfillment of tax obligations on profits earned from the sale of assets. Recognising the significance of capital gains tax compliance is essential due to:

• Legal Obligations: Complying with capital gains tax regulations ensures you adhere to legal requirements and avoid potential penalties.
• Financial Transparency: Accurate reporting enhances financial transparency and demonstrates your commitment to fiscal responsibility.

Deadlines for Capital Gain Disclosures

• You are required to disclose capital gains tax on your UK self-assessment tax return, which is due by January 31 of the year following the tax year in which you sold or disposed of the asset.
• Payment must be made along with the submission of your self-assessment tax return, which is due by January 31 of the year following the tax year in which you sold or disposed of the asset.

The amount of CGT that you pay is dependent on your income, the type of asset you sold, and the length of time you owned the asset. The CGT rate for individuals is usually either 10% or 20%, depending on your income, but can be as high as 28% for higher rate tax payers.

Disposals of residential property may trigger an additional disclosure and earlier payment to HMRC.

Any gain incurred on disposal should be disclosed to HMRC through a online declaration, and the tax paid within 60 days of the completion date.

Note this additional disclosure is currently only required when a gain is made on the disposal of residential property, should a loss be made the disclosure is not required within the 60 day time frame.
