Important information about tax on interest earned
In accordance with UK tax legislation, from 6 April 2016 interest is paid gross. For UK resident individuals (including sole traders or partnerships), if you are a UK taxpayer you may have to pay tax on interest earned in excess of your Personal Savings Allowance. For information and guidance, please refer to HMRC’s website: www.hmrc.gov.uk^.
The management of your tax affairs is your responsibility, including making any required declarations to the relevant tax authority(ies), where you are tax resident.
