Helpful tool

Estimate Capital Gains Tax.

For a straightforward individual gain in England, Wales or Northern Ireland in the 2026/27 tax year. This estimate applies the £3,000 annual exempt amount and 18% and 24% CGT rates.

Estimate only. It does not cover reliefs, losses, Private Residence Relief, trusts or non-UK residence. Check current CGT rates on GOV.UK.

Before you estimate Capital Gains Tax

Have the purchase cost, sale proceeds, dates, improvement costs and selling costs available before using this tool. Those figures can affect the calculation, as can your available annual exempt amount, other gains and losses, and any relief that may apply.

This is an initial guide, not a tax return. The reporting deadline and method can depend on the property, your residence status and whether tax is payable. Keep supporting records and seek advice before you report a disposal or make decisions based on an estimate.
