RE: UK pensions taxable in Luxembourg only?
Hi helptaxqueries,
The terms 'may' and 'shall' when applied to double taxation agreements, convey two meanings.
'May' is used to allow more than one option, such as 'may be taxable', depending on a set of conditions.
'Shall' is stating an intent, based on the article it relates to, e.g. 'This Convention shall apply to persons who are residents of one or both of the Contracting States'.
The UK / Luxembourg double taxation agreement states residents of Luxembourg, who have a non government UK private pension, are only taxable on that pension in Luxembourg.
Paragraph 2 of article 18, states that residents of Luxembourg, who have a UK State Pension, are taxable on that pension in the UK, unless they are a national and resident of Luxembourg, in which case it is taxable in Luxembourg.
Thank you.

RE: Offsetting Losses in Conjunction With Property Sale
Hi Mark Arnold,
There is a Capital G Taxains calculator here:
Tax when you sell your home
One of the questions in the calculator will ask if you are claiming Capital Gains Tax losses from tax years before 2023 to 2024 that you have already reported to HMRC. You will need to enter the losses in this box, even if they occured in 2023 to 2024.
When completing the Gapital Gains Tax online form, there will be a section for in-year losses.
The losses would be declared there.
Please note that you have 60 days from the completion date to report and pay any Capital Gains Tax.
Thank you.

Hi sostupid,

RE: Split year dividends
Hi sathyajayapal,
If you qualify for split year then you only report any foreign income for the UK part of the year:
Residence, Domicile and Remittance Basis Manual
If you do not qualify then you will need to report all your foreign income to the UK:
Tax on foreign income
The guidance at RDRM12150 at www.gov.uk will help you work out if split year treatment applies.
Thank you.

RE: Oversea "single-premium" 5 years life savings insurance policy
Hi
Yes, on maturity of the policy, you will receive a chargeable event certificate.
If the gain is more than £10,000.00, you will need to declare the gain in a Self Assessment Tax return.
If the gain is less, you will need to send the certificate to HM Revenue and Customs.
Thank you.
