Remittance of income and gains: meaning of “remitted to the United Kingdom” U.K.

809N Section 809L: gift recipients, qualifying property and enjoyment U.K.

(1) This section applies for the purposes of determining whether or not income or chargeable gains of an individual are remitted to the United Kingdom by virtue of condition C in section 809L.

(2) A “gift recipient” means a person, other than a relevant person, to whom the individual makes a gift of money or other property that—

(a) is income or chargeable gains of the individual, or

(b) derives (wholly or in part, and directly or indirectly) from income or chargeable gains of the individual.

(3) The question of whether or not a person is a relevant person is to be determined by reference to the time when a gift is made.

(4) But, if a person to whom a gift is made subsequently becomes a relevant person, the person ceases to be a gift recipient.

(5) The individual “makes a gift of” property if the individual disposes of the property—

(a) for no consideration, or

(b) for consideration less than the full consideration in money or money's worth that would be given if the disposal were by way of a bargain made at arm's length;

but, in a case falling in paragraph (b), the individual is to be taken to make a gift of only so much of the property as exceeds the consideration actually given.

(6) A reference to the individual making a gift of property includes a case where—

(a) the individual retains an interest in the property, or

(b) an interest, right or arrangement enables or entitles the individual to benefit from the property.

(7) “Qualifying property”, in relation to a gift recipient, is—

(a) the property that the individual gave to the gift recipient,

(b) anything that derives (wholly or in part, and directly or indirectly) from that property, or

(c) any other property, but only if it is dealt with as mentioned in section 809L(4)(a), (b) or (c) by virtue of an operation which is effected—

(i) with reference to the gift of the property to the gift recipient, or

(ii) with a view to enabling or facilitating the gift of the property to the gift recipient to be made.

(8) In subsection (7)—

(a) the reference in paragraph (b) to anything deriving from property, and

(b) the reference in paragraph (c) to other property,

includes a thing, or property, that does not belong to the individual but which the individual is enabled or entitled to benefit from by virtue of any interest, right or arrangement.

(9) Enjoyment by a relevant person of property or a service is to be disregarded in any of these cases—

(a) if the property or service is enjoyed virtually to the entire exclusion of all relevant persons,

(b) if full consideration in money or money's worth is given by a relevant person for the enjoyment, or

(c) if the property or service is enjoyed by relevant persons in the same way, and on the same terms, as it may be enjoyed by the general public or by a section of the general public.]
