RE: First time to report tax in UK
Hi K H,
You are correct in your steps. However, you cannot file online with the residence section of the return using HMRC software and you will need to buy 3rd party or file the whole return by paper by 31/10/24.

RE: Gold inheritance rate of CGT on sale
Hi David,
Gold bullion will be liable to Capital Gains.
A value will have been given for when the gold bars were acquired - a search engine would be able to confirm this. as it is going through your bank account and in your name then you would be seen as the owner and liable for the gains.
You would need to have a declaration of trust to say that you are not the beneficial owner so that the gain is charged on your girlfriend. Due to the level you state you are selling, you will be liable to both basic rate and higher rate tax of 10% and 20% on any profit.
Thank you. -

Hi bwearryyu,
If not UK resident, you will only declare UK income on the tax return. you will need to include the residence page of the return to show this and as resident in Hong Kong, no personal allowances are due.
Thank you.
