RE: Self employed. Reimbursed travel expenses count as taxable income / VAT threshold calcs?
Hi,
As the flights were invoiced to your client, your client paid for the flights.
This cost should be included in the gross profit and and expense claimed.
Your gross profit will determine if you meet the threshold for registering for VAT.
Thank you. -
RE: Government Bond Interest
Hi edmund,
US government bonds, sometimes known as T-bills or treasury bills are generally taxed as income rather than Capital Gains.
The return is paid at maturity rather than regular interest payments.
In the UK, these are known as deeply discounted securities, with the discount being the difference between the price at which they were issued and the price received at maturity.
On a foreign investment the income is the difference between the purchase and redemption price after each has been converted to sterling on the day the transactions took place, so includes any foreign exchange gains.
Losses cannot be deducted.
Have a look at:
SAIM3010 - Deeply discounted securities: introduction for more information.
Thank you. -
RE: Double Taxation Agreement (DTA)-Foreign Interest Income-Turkey
Hi,
Article 11 of the UK / Turkey treaty confirms that as a UK resident, you would have to pay only 15% tax on the interest in Turkey.
If you have paid more, you should claim a refund from the Turkish tax authorities.
In your self assessment tax return, you can only claim up to 15% of the tax paid in Turkey as a foreign tax credit.
Thank you. -

Where the seller of the business or part of the business is registered for VAT, the buyer must be one of the following:
