  • Self-Assessment for Non-UK Resident Landlord

    Hello people. I hope someone can help me please. I am a non-UK resident landlord (individual) and permanently live outside the UK. I have a property in UK to let out and generate the rental income. I completed the self-assessment 2020 - 2021 by myself and returned to HMRC in order to save the expensive accounting cost. I received a tax calculation letter from HMRC and I was informed that 20% of income profit (after deduction of expenses) that are taxable. Here are the questions: 1. Could someone please clarify if I have any tax obligation despite I am an approved NRL? 2. Any property income tax allowance for NRL? 3. HMRC letter I received so far, it always recommend to file the tax return (self-assessment) on the GOV website. However, when I go through the registration process, the system requires a NI number which I do not have. Is there any other alternatives to set up an account without NI number specially for non-UK resident landlord? Currently I just keep sending and receiving information by post. Thank you.
