I am resident of Hong Kong, holding British National (overseas) passport, have property income in UK, am I entitled for the Personal Allowance?

Hi,
Please refer to the Residence, remittance basis etc notes:
Residence, remittance basis etc notes pages RRN 4 to RRN8 explain how and who can claim UK personal allowance when completing the SA109 supplementary page.
A British national resident in Hong Kong is entitled to UK personal allowances.
Thank you.

thank you for your reply. I am holding a British National (overseas) passport, not a British passport, am I entitled for the Personal Allowance?

Hi,
The question answered above relates to claiming the personal allowance as a British National.
A British National overseas passport does not entitle you to claim a UK personal allowance as you need to be a british citizen.
Please refere to the following links to determine if you are classed as a british citizen:
Check if you're a British citizen

Thank you

How about the £1000 property allowance? Am I entitled to it as a non-resident landlord? I am a Hong Kong resident with a Hong Kong passport.

Not HMRC...All UK citizens are entitled to personal allowance, regardless of where they live or what their circumstances https://www.gov.uk/tax-uk-income-live-abroad/personal-allowance
