Hi, I have dual citizenship with UK and Ireland. I live in the UK. I have income from renting a property in Ireland and also capital gains from selling the property. I have paid the tax in Ireland and filled in self assessment in Ireland. Do I need to put this information in my UK tax return? Assume if i do I can claim double tax relief? Thanks

Hi,
Please can you clarify whether you are renting out a property in Ireland and now sold it.?
If you are deemed a UK tax resident then a property you own sold in ireland may be subject to tax in Ireland.
If you normally complete a UK tax return then the capital gain from Ireland and tax suffered needs to be declared on the UK tax return plus a claim for Foreign Tax Credit Relief showing the gain and the tax paid in Eire.
If you have now ceased to receive an income from property in Ireland, make sure you notify us of same on the tax return.
Thankyou.
