RE: Landlord Income Query
Hi
Thank you for your question.
Can you please clarify your meaning behind "I'm a private landlord not a holiday let landlord so is it right that my rental income is not allowed?" with regards to working our tax due on a rental property.
Please see attached link: Work out your rental income when you let property

RE: Futures Trading as Sole Trader CGT
Hi Normally, making an investment that yields investment income would not count as a trading activity. If you are carrying out these transactions, specifically trading as a business, then the income and expenses would be declared on a self assessment tax return as self employment income. Where the investments are carried out as an individual and not a business, then the gains would be taxed as capital gains. Thank you -
RE: CGT question - death of spouse and property will be sold
Hi
We cannot advise advise how much tax will be payable, only explain how you can calculate the liability.
There is a calculator at Tax when you sell property: Work out your gain.
As there is no capital gains tax arising from the transfer of assets between husband and wife, your mum will receive your late father's 50% share free of capital gains tax, using the acquisition cost in 2008, so the whole acquisition cost will be that paid in 2008.
The calculator will also require details of income such as pensions, state pensions etc.
Following on from the calculator is a link to register for a capital gains account, where the gain can be reported and the tax paid.
Please note that if there is a gain, your mum will have 60 days from the completion date, to report and pay the capital gains tax.

RE: Voluntary VAT registration when only supplying services outside UK
Hi
If you are providing services overseas which the Place of Supply Rules deem as Outside The Scope of VAT then this is not taxable turnover and would not go towards the current £90k threshold for Registration purposes.
Please see the guide below:
Place of supply of services (VAT Notice 741A) Section 6
If you make only supplies overseas which would be taxable in the UK then you can register voluntarily for VAT.
Please see the guidance below, specifically section 2.9
Who should register for VAT (VAT Notice 700/1)
If you make specified supplies of insurance or finance you are also able to register voluntarily for VAT.
Please see section 2.7 of the following guidance:
Who should register for VAT (VAT Notice 700/1)
If you become registered for VAT voluntarily and you make supplies to customers in the UK then you will need to charge VAT in the normal way
Once you become VAT registered you are allowed to reclaim VAT as input tax if the VAT is incurred in the furtherance of your business.
You are also entitled to reclaim VAT incurred prior to your Registration date.
Please see the guidance below:
VAT guide (VAT Notice 700) Section 10 & VAT guide (VAT Notice 700) Section 11
I would recommend choosing option 2 on the application. It is still a voluntary registration as there is no requirement to register for VAT and that is already assumed on the application.

RE: Non resident of UK selling services to Uk based clients
Hi The UK business customer does not need to be VAT registered in order for the reverse charge procedure to be used. For the reverse charge to be applicable the customer needs to be in business. This could be as a limited company or as a sole trader for example. When providing services from overseas it is always beneficial to get some evidence to show that the UK customer is in business and receiving your supply for a business purpose. If the parent company supplies these kind of services then the UK business customer would need to account for the VAT on the reverse charge procedure. Thank you -
