Tax refund interest

Hello, I am UK resident for tax purposes since few years ago. I recently received a tax refund from Spain. The tax refund amount received includes interest. I received the interest in addition to the tax refund. Do I have to inform HMRC about the Tax refund and the interest received? Is the interest I received taxable in UK? Thanks.

Hi Bery,

Only if you have claimed a Foreign Tax Credit Relief and the refund from Spain, reduces the sum you can claim for.  

The interest does not arise from income and is not taxble.

Thank you.
