Taxed Status when Processing Money through UK Bank Account

I am a British Citizen but a permanent resident in Japan. I paid into a long-term private investment account in Japan for 14 years but decided I wanted to do something else with the money. The amount was 40k, and I cashed it into my UK bank account this May 2023. I then immediately invested it in property bonds (no interest was received during the time the money was in the UK account). Do I have to pay any tax on the amount that entered my UK bank account? Also, a six-month yield payment of 3k was paid to me last month. Do I have to declare this? The bond will mature and close next May with another yield payment of 3k and a return on the initial investment, a total of 43k. Will I have to declare this? Thank you for any advice you can give.

Hi,

You can see guidance here:

Tax on your UK income if you live abroad

Thank you.

Thanks. I read through everything but couldn't determine if this applied to my situation. Can you let me know, based on your experience, if I am liable for paying tax on this return of investment in the UK?

Hi pinjapan

No tax will be due as you will still be entitled to personal allowances to cover the income.

Thank you

Thank you!
