  • Capital Gains Tax on US stock dividend cash when transferred to UK?

    I have a long-held stock plan account in the United States (part of my remuneration package from a former employer) made up of stock and cash reserves, the latter comprising dividends accumulated from the stock. I pay tax in the US on the dividends, which I also declare on my yearly UK tax return I just wish to confirm that I can transfer funds from the cash reserves in the US stock account to my British bank account without being liable for paying tax in the UK on the transferred amount? Or if there is any yearly tax-free limit to the amount that could be transfered, please could you advise me? Thank you.
