Use your CGT exemption &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone has an annual CGT exemption, which enables you to make tax-free gains of up to \u00a33,000 in the current tax year (but can\u2019t be carried forward into the next tax year). Any gains you make above this limit may be liable for CGT. So even though the allowance is less generous than in the past, making full use of it each year could reduce the risk of incurring a bigger CGT liability in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"439\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/assets\/wp-content\/uploads\/wme\/uk\/CGT-infographics-01.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Capital Gains Tax \u00a33000 tax free gains\" class=\"wp-image-44558\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-make-use-of-losses-nbsp\">2. Make use of losses &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be able to minimise your CGT liability by using losses to reduce your gain. Gains and losses realised in the same tax year must be offset against each other, which can reduce the amount of gain that is subject to tax. Unused losses from previous years can be brought forward, provided they are reported to HMRC within four years from the end of the tax year in which the asset was disposed of. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-transfer-assets-to-your-spouse-or-civil-partner-nbsp\">3. Transfer assets to your spouse or civil partner &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a class=\"link-underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/en-uk\/insights\/four-financial-planning-tips-couples\">Transfers between spouses<\/a> and civil partners are exempt from CGT, which means assets can be transferred from one partner to the other to use each person\u2019s annual CGT exemption. This effectively doubles the CGT exemption for married couples and civil partners. The transfer must be a genuine, outright gift. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-invest-in-an-isa-or-bed-and-isa-nbsp\">4. Invest in an ISA or &#8216;bed and ISA&#8217; &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gains (and losses) made on investments held within an ISA are exempt from CGT, so it makes sense, particularly for higher and additional-rate taxpayers, to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/en-uk\/insights\/four-reasons-to-invest-in-an-isa-this-year\">use your ISA allowance<\/a> each year. In the current tax year, you can invest up to \u00a320,000 in an ISA. For married couples and civil partners, the ISA allowance effectively doubles to \u00a340,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"399\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/assets\/wp-content\/uploads\/wme\/uk\/CGT-infographics-02.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Capital Gains Tax ISA Allowance \u00a320,000\" class=\"wp-image-44557\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also a tactic called \u2018bed and ISA\u2019, which involves selling investments to realise a capital gain and then immediately buying back the same investments inside an ISA. This enables all future gains on the investment to be CGT free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that by selling investments, you&#8217;ll realise a gain or loss in the current year, so you could be liable for a tax charge in the year you sell the asset.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bear in mind that you may pay stamp duty and other costs when repurchasing investments in an ISA and there\u2019s a risk that time out of the market, however small, might detrimentally impact your investments. If you\u2019re unsure, speak to a financial adviser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-contribute-to-a-pension-nbsp\">5. Contribute to a pension &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Making a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/en-uk\/insights\/how-to-use-your-pension-to-manage-income-tax\">pension contribution<\/a> from relevant earnings could help you save on CGT because it effectively increases the upper limit of your income tax band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If, for example, you made a gross pension contribution of \u00a310,000, the point at which higher-rate tax becomes payable would rise from \u00a350,270 to \u00a360,270 (2025\/26 tax year). If your capital gain plus other taxable income fell within this extended basic-rate income tax band, CGT would be payable at 18% instead of 24%, provided the gain wasn\u2019t from residential property. This means you could save 6% on the tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-give-shares-to-charity-nbsp\">6. Give shares to charity &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you donate land, property or qualifying shares to a registered charity, you can benefit from both income tax relief and CGT relief. This means you can deduct the asset&#8217;s full market value from your taxable income and you won\u2019t have to pay CGT on any gains, respectively, making it a tax-efficient way to support causes you care about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-invest-in-an-enterprise-investment-scheme-nbsp\">7. Invest in an Enterprise Investment Scheme &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Any gains that are made on investments in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/venture-capital-schemes-apply-for-the-enterprise-investment-scheme\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Enterprise Investment Scheme<\/a> (EIS) are free from CGT if held for three or more years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be able to defer a capital gain by investing that gain in an EIS qualifying company, but only if the investment is made one year before or up to three years after the gain arose. The deferred capital gain will come back into charge once you take your money out of the EIS qualifying company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EISs are higher risk than traditional investments and can be harder to sell, so are not appropriate for all investors &#8211; seeking financial advice is strongly recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-8-claim-gift-hold-over-relief-nbsp\">8. Claim gift hold over relief &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gift hold over relief could be available if you give away certain business assets or sell them for less than they are worth to help the buyer. If you\u2019re eligible, you won\u2019t pay CGT when you give away the assets, but the person you give them to might be liable for CGT when they sell them. You must meet several eligibility conditions, so if you\u2019re unsure speak to a professional adviser. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-9-make-gains-on-chattels-that-escape-cgt-nbsp\">9. <strong>Make gains on chattels that escape CGT<\/strong> &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gains on possessions such as antiques and collectibles, called \u2018chattels\u2019, may be tax free. For example, items with a predictable life of 50 years or fewer, known as \u2018wasting assets\u2019, are CGT free, provided they were not eligible for business capital allowances. Wasting assets include antique clocks, vintage cars, pleasure boats and caravans. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For non-wasting chattels, like paintings and jewellery, the CGT position depends on the sale proceeds, with those \u00a36,000 or under usually being exempt. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"534\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/assets\/wp-content\/uploads\/wme\/uk\/CGT-infographics-03.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Capital Gains Tax Jewellery figure\" class=\"wp-image-44556\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-10-seek-professional-advice-nbsp\">10. Seek professional advice &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CGT is a complicated subject, so make sure you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/en-uk\/private-clients\/our-services\/financial-planning-and-advice\" class=\"link-underline\">seek professional advice<\/a> or liaise with your personal tax adviser. An adviser will help you understand the available tax reliefs, allowances and exemptions, and explain the range of options available to you based on your individual circumstances.
