The HMRC post is about an employee share scheme (=a Trust).The DRIP occuring within the trust would not be taxable to the individual as the individual never beneficially received the dividend.However if it is paid to a broker/ bank account or nominee account with registrar - this is to your individual benefit even if they reinvest it the same day and you never see the cash. There is no Trust here.Anyway, the answer will be on your end of year tax certificate.

Hi,

If a company pays out cash dividends to shareholders and they use that cash to buy additional shares (in other words, they reinvest the dividends themselves – the company does not automatically reinvest the dividends on their behalf), that shareholder will owe income tax on the dividend payments made in the year they are received – just as if they were taken as cash and never reinvested.

If, however, the company reinvests the dividends by using them to purchase additional shares on a shareholders’ behalf through a dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP) (the company reinvests the shares automatically, without the shareholder having to do a thing or ever receiving the dividends physically themselves), that shareholder does not pay income tax on the reinvested dividends until they eventually sell the shares. At the point of selling the shares, capital gains tax would apply on any increase in share value since the reinvestment occurred.

Thank you.

If held by a UK taxpayer (and outside ISA/SIPP etc), dividends are always taxable regardless of any dividend reinvestment option. It would create a massive tax loophole otherwise. You will find your taxable income on your annual tax statement from the registrar/ broker. It will appear under foreign income because it is an Isle of Man company but it makes no difference. The income will also be notified to HMRC along with your NI number (and/or the authority of the country where you live if you are not in the UK).

It's not taxable if automatic reinvest within Portfolio .... If you received in bank then apply buying shares ... that's different... but if you choose to automatically reinvest buying same shares then u can avoid tax

Blackhorse - wrong on the dividends, the inland revenue treat dividend reinvestment as if you have received the income. Its taxable when paid not received.

Barclays have paid today and auto reinvested in dividend. Wasn’t sure if they would as it’s a special dividend, but they did and paid 313 which seems ok with me. Have 150% ish more shares now than yesterday, so let’s see this fly now please.
