43 & 44 Vict. c. 19.
|
5. Income tax in respect of income arising from securities, stocks, shares, or rents in any place out of the United Kingdom shall, notwithstanding anything in the rules under the fourth and fifth case in section one hundred of the Income Tax Act, 1842, be computed on the full amount of the income, whether the income has been or will be received in the United Kingdom or not, subject in the case of income not received in the United Kingdom to the same deductions and allowances as if it had been so received and to the deduction (where such a deduction cannot be made under any other provision of the Income Tax Acts) of any sum which shall have been paid in respect of income tax in the place where the income shall have arisen, and to a deduction on account of any annual interest or any annuity or other annual payment payable out of the income to a person not resident in the United Kingdom; and the provisions of the Income Tax Acts (including those relating to returns) shall apply accordingly, and nothing in those provisions as to the receipt of sums in the United Kingdom shall be construed so as to render liable under those rules to income tax for the current or any subsequent year any sums which represent—
|
| |
(a) income from any such securities, stocks, shares, or rents, on which income tax has been paid under this section; or
|
| |
(b) income from any such securities, stocks, shares, or rents which was paid or became due before the sixth day of April, nineteen hundred and fourteen :
|
| |
Provided that this section shall not apply in the case of a person who satisfies the Commissioners of Inland Revenue that he is not domiciled in the United Kingdom, or that, being a British subject, he is not ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom.
|
| |
Any person aggrieved by any decision of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue, on a question of domicile or residence under this section, shall have the same right to require those Commissioners to state a case on the question as an appellant has to require the general or special Commissioners to state a case on a point of law, and section fifty-nine of the Taxes Management Act, 1880, and any rules made for the purposes of that section shall apply accordingly.
