Hi, I sold a flat in Germany and paid German income tax on it. I want to rely on the DTA UK-Germany and not been taxed twice. The DTA covers CGT and income tax. In Germany the Capital Gain is assessed as part of Income Tax (and not separately as Capital Gain) and the total income results in an overall income tax rate which is applied to the Capital Gain. This results in a much higher tax rate for the gain compared to the UK. Now I also have other employment income which drives up the tax rate in Germany, How do I split the tax paid for FTCR between the UK CGT return SA108 and Employment income SA102 and the corresponding foreign notes SA106? Thanks!
