If a person makes a claim under section 831(1) for a tax year in respect of relevant foreign income, income tax is charged on the full amount of the sums received in the United Kingdom in the tax year in respect of the income.

For the purposes of subsection (1), it does not matter whether the income arises in the year for which the claim is made or arose in an earlier year in which the person was UK resident.

The only case in which deductions are allowed is where the income is from a trade, profession or vocation carried on outside the United Kingdom.

In that case the same deductions are allowed as are allowed under the Income Tax Acts where the trade, profession or vocation is carried on in the United Kingdom.

This section is subject to section 835 (relief for delayed remittances).
