[F6 10A Temporary non-residents. U.K.

(1) This section applies if an individual (“the taxpayer”) is temporarily non-resident.

(2) The taxpayer is chargeable to capital gains tax as if gains and losses within subsection (3) were chargeable gains or, as the case may be, losses accruing to the taxpayer in the period of return.

(3) The gains and losses within this subsection are—

(a) chargeable gains and losses that accrued to the taxpayer in the temporary period of non-residence,

(b) chargeable gains that would be treated under section 13 as having accrued to the taxpayer in that period if the residence assumption were made,

(c) losses that would be allowable in the taxpayer's case under section 13(8) in that period if that assumption were made, and

(d) chargeable gains that would be treated under section 86 as having accrued to the taxpayer in a tax year falling wholly in that period if the taxpayer had been resident in the United Kingdom for that year.

(4) The residence assumption is—

(a) that the taxpayer had been resident in the United Kingdom for the tax year in which the gain or loss accrued to the company, or

(b) if that tax year was a split year as respects the taxpayer, that the gain or loss had accrued to the company in the UK part of it.

(5) But—

(a) a gain is not within subsection (3) if, ignoring this section, the taxpayer is chargeable to capital gains tax in respect of it (and could not cease to be so chargeable by making a claim under section 6 of TIOPA 2010), and

(b) a loss is not within subsection (3) if the test in paragraph (a) would be met if it were a gain.

(6) Subsection (2) is subject to sections 10AA and 86A.

(7) To determine the losses mentioned in subsection (3)(c)—

(a) calculate separately, for each tax year falling wholly or partly in the temporary period of non-residence, the portion of sum A that does not exceed sum B, and

(b) add up all those portions.

(8) For the purposes of subsection (7)—

• “sum A” is the aggregate of the losses that were not available in accordance with section 13(8) for reducing gains accruing to the taxpayer by virtue of section 13 in the relevant tax year, but would have been available if the residence assumption had been made, and

• “sum B” is the amount of the gains that did not accrue to the taxpayer by virtue of section 13 in that tax year but would have so accrued if that assumption had been made.

(9) If section 809B, 809D or 809E of ITA 2007 (remittance basis) applies to the taxpayer for the year of return, any foreign chargeable gains falling within subsection (3) by virtue of paragraph (a) of that subsection that were remitted to the United Kingdom at any time in the temporary period of non-residence are to be treated as remitted to the United Kingdom in the period of return.

(10) Part 4 of Schedule 45 to the Finance Act 2013 (statutory residence test: anti-avoidance) explains—

(a) when an individual is to be regarded as “temporarily non-resident”, and

(b) what “the temporary period of non-residence” and “the period of return” mean.

(11) In this section—

• “foreign chargeable gains” has the meaning given by section 12(4);

• “remitted to the United Kingdom” has the same meaning as in Chapter A1 of Part 14 of ITA 2007;

• “the year of return” means the tax year that consists of or includes the period of return.

(c) the asset is not an interest created by or arising under a settlement, and

(d) the amount or value of the consideration for the acquisition of the asset by the taxpayer does not fall, by reference to any relevant disposal, to be treated as reduced under section 23(4)(b) or (5)(b), 152(1)(b), 153(1)(b), 162(3)(b) or 247(2)(b) or (3)(b).

(2) “Relevant disposal” means a disposal of an asset acquired by the person making the disposal at a time when that person was resident in the United Kingdom and was not Treaty non-resident.

(b) that other asset meets the requirements of paragraphs (a) to (d) of subsection (1), but the asset in respect of which the gain actually accrued or would actually accrue does not.

(4) Nothing in any double taxation relief arrangements is to be read as preventing the taxpayer from being chargeable to capital gains tax in respect of any chargeable gains treated under section 10A as accruing to the taxpayer in the period of return (or as preventing a charge to that tax from arising as a result).

(5) Nothing in any enactment imposing any limit on the time within which an assessment to capital gains tax may be made prevents any assessment for the year of departure from being made in the taxpayer's case at any time before the end of the second anniversary of the 31 January next following the year of return (as defined in section 10A).]

(8) So far as it would go to reduce or extinguish chargeable gains accruing by virtue of this section to a person in a year of assessment this section shall apply in relation to a loss accruing to the company on the disposal of an asset in that year of assessment as it would apply if a gain instead of a loss had accrued to the company on the disposal, but shall only so apply in relation to that person; and subject to the preceding provisions of this subsection this section shall not apply in relation to a loss accruing to the company.

(9) If [F36 a person who is a participator in the company] at the time when the chargeable gain accrues to the company is itself a company which is not resident in the United Kingdom but which would be a close company if it were resident in the United Kingdom, an amount equal to the amount apportioned under subsection (3) above out of the chargeable gain [F37 to the participating company’s interest as a participator in the company to which the gain accrues shall be further apportioned among the participators in the participating company according to the extent of their respective interests as participators, and subsection (2) above shall apply to them accordingly in relation to the amounts further apportioned, and so on through any number of companies].

(10) The persons treated by this section as if a part of a chargeable gain accruing to a company had accrued to them shall include [F38 the trustees of a settlement who are participators] [F39 in the company, or in any company amongst the participators in which the gain is apportioned under subsection (9) above,] if when the gain accrues to the company the trustees are [F40 not resident] in the United Kingdom.

[F42 (10B) A chargeable gain that would be treated as accruing to a person under subsection (2) above shall not be so treated if—

(a) it would be so treated only if assets that are assets of a pension scheme were taken into account in ascertaining that person’s interest as a participator in the company, and

(b) at the time the gain accrues a gain arising on a disposal of those assets would be exempt from tax by virtue of [F43 section 271(1)(c) or (1A)].

In paragraph (a) above “assets of a pension scheme” means assets held for the purposes of a fund or scheme to which any of the provisions mentioned in paragraph (b) above applies.]

[F44 (11A) For the purposes of this section the amount of the gain or loss accruing at any time to a company that is not resident in the United Kingdom shall be computed (where it is not the case) as if that company were within the charge to corporation tax on capital gains.]

[F45 (12) In this section “participator”, in relation to a company, has the meaning given by [F46 section 454 of CTA 2010].

(13) In this section—

(a) references to a person’s interest as a participator in a company are references to the interest in the company which is represented by all the factors by reference to which he falls to be treated as such a participator; and

(b) references to the extent of such an interest are references to the proportion of the interests as participators of all the participators in the company (including any who are not resident F47 ... in the United Kingdom) which on a just and reasonable apportionment is represented by that interest.

(14) For the purposes of this section, where—

(a) the interest of any person in a company is wholly or partly represented by an interest which he has under any settlement (“his beneficial interest”), and

(b) his beneficial interest is the factor, or one of the factors, by reference to which that person would be treated (apart from this subsection) as having an interest as a participator in that company,

the interest as a participator in that company which would be that person’s shall be deemed, to the extent that it is represented by his beneficial interest, to be an interest of the trustees of the settlement (and not of that person), and references in this section, in relation to a company, to a participator shall be construed accordingly.
