Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005

Section 403: Income charged

1635.This section sets out the amount charged to tax and is based on section 65(1) of ICTA.

1636.Subsection (1) charges tax on the full amount of the dividends arising in the tax year. The term “arising” has been retained (see the commentary on income charged in Chapter 2 of Part 4 of this Act). The arising basis is different from the paid basis which applies to the charge to tax on dividends and other distributions from UK resident companies (for a discussion of the paid basis see the commentary on Chapter 3 of Part 4 of this Act) and, given they do not mean exactly the same, “paid” has not been used in this context.

1637.Subsection (2) makes the basis of assessment in subsection (1) subject to the SIPs rules and Part 8 of this Act. Part 8 contains the special rules which apply to foreign income (see further the commentary on Part 8 of this Act).
