RE: Gains from non-reporting Offshore Mutual Fund Redemption
Hi,
The main effect for UK investors who have invested in non-reporting funds, as opposed to reporting funds, is that on disposal of their interests they will be liable to tax on any gain arising as if it were income (that is, an offshore income gain, or ‘OIG’) instead of as a capital gain.
Please have a look at:
Investment Funds Manual
and helpsheet HS265:
HS265 Offshore funds Published 6 April 2023.
This income is declared in box 41 of SA106:
Self Assessment: Foreign (SA106).

For further information on this you may with to speak to your bank again to see if they can help further.
