Transferring funds form own account in France

[kamoe]

Hi everyone

I have seen versions of this question with versions of different answers, and I wanted to try and have a more straightforward answer on this:

Are there any tax implications if one transfers funds from one's own bank account in France (or another country in the EU) to one's own bank account in the UK? This is assuming the money does not come from selling property, and that any due tax on the money (income, inheritance, capital gain, etc.) has been paid in the country of origin.

Or does the origin of the money make a difference in the answer? (e.g. implications if it's inheritance, but not if personal savings, etc.)

Thanks

There is no UK tax on the simple transfer of funds.

If the source of the funds is your income or gains, you may be liable to tax.

If you have non-UK income or gains you would want to consider whether to elect to claim the remittance basis.

Money comes from gift of father. Not an income or result of sale of property. Provided all due taxes are paid in France, any issue if transferred to the UK?
