Bringing foreign income to the UK - To declare or not?

I have savings of about 30,000 CAD (or 18,000 GBP) while working as an international student in Canada between 2017-2020. I had this money before being a UK domicile and I already paid tax on it in Canada. I am now a funded PhD student in the UK (since 2021) and I want to move this money to my British bank account. 1) Would this income be taxable? 2) Would I have to declare it in a self-assessment when I do my taxes?

Just to clarify, I am not a UK domicile. I am a tax-paying resident now.

Hi,

You wont pay tax on the capital that you transfer but once this income is then banked, any interest or dividends that are generated would need to be declared

Thank you.

Thanks for answering. Do I still have to declare it when I file my taxes?

Hi,

Not the capital, just any interest.

Thank you.
