Tax on moving money from abroad to a uk bank account to buy a house in the uk

Evening, I’m an English national and my wife is Taiwanese. We are putting a deposit down on our first home here in the UK. Most of our money is our Taiwanese and Chinese bank accounts and we want to move this to our uk bank prior to paying the deposit. Question is; do we have to pay any kind of tax on the importation of funds? We already have to pay a transaction fee which we are aware of but not sure about tax on money moved from abroad… Thanks in advance :) x

Hi,
There is no limit to the amount of money you can transfer from an overseas bank account to a UK bank account. 
If any of the money transferred is from income or capital gains arising in the tax year it is transferred, then that income and capital gains is taxable and should be reported on a Self Assessment tax return.   
If the money transferred is purely from savings, it is classed as capital and is not taxable. 
Thank you.
