SCHEDULE 22Asset-based penalty for offshore inaccuracies and failures

PART 3Identification and valuation of assets

Introduction

I110

1

This Part makes provision about the identification and valuation of the asset for the purposes of calculating the amount of the asset-based penalty.

2

An asset-based penalty may relate to more than one asset.

3

The identification and valuation of the asset is to be determined—

a

under paragraph 11 where the principal tax at stake is capital gains tax,

b

under paragraph 12 where the principal tax at stake is inheritance tax, and

c

under paragraph 13 where the principal tax at stake is asset-based income tax.

See also paragraph 14 (jointly held assets).

4

The principal tax at stake—

a

in a case where the standard offshore tax penalty (or penalties) relates to only one type of tax, is the tax to which that standard offshore tax penalty (or penalties) relates;

b

in a case where the standard offshore tax penalty (or penalties) relate to more than one type of tax, is the tax which gives rise to the highest offshore PLR value.

5

The offshore PLR value, in relation to a type of tax, is the potential lost revenue or liability to tax by reference to which the part of the penalty relating to that type of tax was assessed.

6

The rules in paragraph 5(2) to (7) apply for the purposes of calculating the offshore PLR value, in relation to a type of tax, as they apply for the purposes of calculating the offshore PLR.
