Report and pay your Capital Gains Tax
What you need to do
How you report and pay your Capital Gains Tax depends whether you sold:
Before you can report any gains you’ll need:
- details of how much you bought and sold the asset for
- the dates when you took ownership and disposed of the asset
- any other relevant details, such as the costs of buying, selling or making improvements to the asset and any tax reliefs you’re entitled to
- calculations for each capital gain or loss you report
This guide is also available in Welsh (Cymraeg).
If you’re not a UK resident
You must report all sales of property or land in the UK on or after 6 April 2020, even if you have no tax to pay. You do not need to report or pay tax on anything else that’s increased in value.
If you sold UK property or land before 6 April 2020, you’ll need to report your gains using a non-resident Capital Gains Tax return.
