I am new here and have found a lot of useful information on capital gains
One thing that jumps out is capital gains for assets owned before you moved abroad. The following page sets out what temporary tax residence means but it remains unclear if that is five full tax years or five calendar years

I moved abroad in June 2019 and my question is if I do sell an asset which I owned before and do not wish to pay Uk cgt what is the earliest date I can move back to the Uk?
Is it June 2024 which is five calendar years or is it five tax years which means 6 April 2020 would be the first year and the earliest departure 6 April 2025. That nine month difference is massive for me and would mean whether I decide to sell the asset or not
The best hmrc page I could find here but I could not make out whether five calendar or tax years. I have figured out everything else including paying cgt in Uk on gains made after 2015 tax changes. This question is about temporary non resident and the five calendar or full tax years
