RE: Clarification on overseas interest
Hi Query,
A Self Assessment is required even though the tax due may in fact be ‘nil’ (for example, in any case in which the taxpayer’s total chargeable income for the year is less than the personal allowances due for that year).
Foreign income and capital gains, regardless of the amounts, meet the criteria for completing a Self Assessment tax return.
You can check if you need to send a tax return here:

RE: Currency Exchange Loss
Hi iren,
Currency other than sterling is a chargeable asset and its disposal can give rise to a chargeable gain or an allowable loss.
The loss would be declared in the capital gains sections of the tax return, relating to either listed or unlisted shares.
Please have a look a the guidance here:

Onwards.
Thank you. -

RE: Capital Gains and Income tax personal allowance
Hi Wee Gee,
As UK property needs to be declared within 60 days, you can specify how much of the annual allowance you wish to use.
You can then report the non property gain and use the annual allowance there or vice versa

RE: Selling software to an EU country - B2B
Hi taoball,
If you are supplying software and a software support service B to B then this should come under the General Rule of Services when determining the Place of Supply.
Please see the guidance below:
6. The place of supply rules for services
You do not have to get the customers VAT numbers although you do need to be satisfied that they are in business.
It is your decision as to whether you establish a base in France.
However for the purposes of Place of Supply you do not need to for your services to be deemed as Outside the Scope of VAT.
Thank you.
