RE: Cash gift from parents outside UK
Hi Aneyran Burman,
There are no Income Tax implications on the giving or receipt of a cash gift unless the cash gift generates interest or dividends.
These would then potentially be subject to tax.
Further guidance can be found here:
Tax on savings interest
Tax on dividends
You may also wish to consider any inheritance tax implications.
The rules on giving gifts can be found here: How Inheritance Tax works: thresholds, rules and allowances Rules on giving gifts
You may also want to review the guidance at:How Inheritance Tax works: thresholds, rules and allowances Overview
Thank you.

RE: Clarification on rules when receiving inheritance from abroad
Hi Oakleyad,
Inheritance tax is only due on UK assets.
Therefore inheritance receive from anywhere that is not the UK is not taxable and does not need to be declared.
However, you will need to declare any income that is then generated from the asset.
Also if you sell the property, Capital Gains Tax may be due.
Thank you.
