Hi Aurelie,

There are no Income Tax implications on the receipt of a cash gift unless the cash gift generates interest or dividends. These would then potentially be subject to tax.

Hi Bryan Lee,

If you are taxable on the remittance basis, you continue to be liable to UK tax on any remittances (amounts) of foreign income and gains that you remit to the UK. The transfer of money from an overseas bank account to a UK account would fall into the 'remittance to the UK' category.                                        

Remittance basis 2021 (HS264)

Thank you.

Hi,

Under Article 19 of the Double Taxation Agreement with Hong Kong, any income you receive is only tax free if your only reason for being in the UK is to study. As a BNO visa is not a student visa, your income will need to be declared.

Thank you.

He does not need to declare the transfer of the capital. However, he must declare any interest or dividends that this then generates.
