I've been tax resident in the UK for the last 5 or so years. I've recently started looking to buying a property in the UK to live. For this reason I'm considering bringing from overseas money from different sources: 1) My own savings from employment prior to having moved to the UK, which already have paid tax and have been staying in a bank account without any interested from the moment I moved to the UK. 2) A cash gift from a relative. 3) A loan from a friend which I will commit to pay back in instalments, something like 10,000 which I will pay back in instalments of 500 Do I need to make any declaration to the HMRC for any of these transactions? Do I pay any tax on any of these transactions? Thanks in advance

Hi

1) This is classes as capital and is not taxable.  
2)  Cash gifts are not taxable.  
3) There is nothing to declare for tax purposes, regarding a loan

Thank you
