Part 12: Supplementary provisions
Chapter 4: Partnerships, successions and transfers
Section 561: Transfer of a UK trade to a company in another member State

1947.This section is based on section 152B of CAA 1990. It provides a “step-in-shoes” rule for the transfer of a UK trade if it is transferred from a company resident in one member state to a company resident in another.

1948.This section cannot apply unless section 140A of TCGA 1992 applies so it needs to be read with sections 140A and 140B of TCGA 1992.
