RE: Certificate of fiscal residence in UK
Hi
Article 6 of the Spain: tax treaties that exists with the UK and Spain, allows Spain to have the first rights to tax income from a property in Spain.
You will have to declare the income to Agencia Española de Administración Tributaria and pay the appropriate tax there.
Please see: : 2014 UK-Spain Double Taxation Convention (publishing.service.gov.uk)
As a UK resident, you are required to declare your worldwide income in a self-assesment tax return. You would declare your foreign property income in SA106 and claim up to 100% of the foreign tax deducted a as Foreign Tax Credit Relief (FTCR).
A certificate of residence can be requested at How to apply for a certificate of residence to claim tax relief abroad but is not appropriate for income from immoveable property, as it is only appropriate when the benefits of the double taxation treaty are being claimed.
We can issue a Letter Of Confirmation of Residence (L.O.C.R.) which is when an individual is required to provide evidence to an overseas authority that they are resident in the UK for tax purposes to meet a requirement of an overseas countries local law.
This can also be requested by submitting the same request at How to apply for a certificate of residence to claim tax relief abroad.

RE: Discretionary Trust SA900/SA903
Hi
SA900 is the main tax return and SA903 covers income from property.
The guidance on SA900 advises "You can choose to calculate the trust or estate's tax.
But if you do not want to, and providing we receive the return by 31 October 2024, we’ll work out the tax for you and let you know if there is tax to pay by 31 January 2025.
From a self-assessment perspective, there are no other forms the trust will have to submit.
The trust will have to give every beneficiary the appropriate R185, so they can declare it in their own self-assessment tax return.

RE: non-resident CGT applicability on UK joint shares account
Hi
You would need to consult the tax treaty with your country of residence, to ensure that the capital gain is covered.
Guidance is available at: Tax treaties
If the treaty gives your country of residence the right to tax your gain, you would not have to pay any capital gains in the UK. As a UK resident, your brother would have CGT to pay.

RE: Refund of alcohol duty on export of spirits and wines to Germany
Hi vlipper Volker Lipper
Are these customs charges paid to German customs or UK customs? If goods are exported from UK to Germany, they will not incur customs charges by UK customs as these are exports.
