Hi Can you put me right over a pending house sale? Have lived outside Uk 1994-2022. Bought a holiday home in Crete 2006 whilst living and working in Norway, owned the house 16yrs whilst resident of Norway, wife is Norwegian. Moved back to Uk 2022, have owned the house 2yrs whilst resident of Uk. Where do l stand with any CGT to Uk? With any sale of the property l’m to declare to Norway as it is on mine and my Norwegian wife’s tax return and l’m tax liable to Norway until 2026, we have to declare to Norway to get the house off our tax returns. My wife is not a Uk citizen, yet. Thanks

Hi Oldmazda1997,
If resident and domiciled in the UK, you are liable on your worldwide income so any gain would need to be reported here.
Thank you.

Could you please explain how l would do that? Also if the house is in joint names must we both declare? Thanks for any response.
