What HMRC says

Frequently asked questions
What was the DKK exchange rate in March 2019?
The HMRC monthly exchange rate for Krone (DKK) in March 2019 was 8.5891 DKK per £1. To convert a DKK amount to sterling, divide by 8.5891. For example, DKK 100,000 ÷ 8.5891 = £11,643.
What exchange rate do I use to report foreign income or capital gains to HMRC?
For capital gains tax, HMRC's Capital Gains Manual (CG78310) says to convert each amount at the exchange rate in force on the date of the transaction. HMRC doesn't prescribe a source, but expects a reasonable and consistent method. The Bank of England daily spot rate matches the transaction date most directly, and HMRC's monthly exchange rates are also widely used. Choose one method, apply it to every figure, and keep it for later disposals and tax years.
Can I use the March 2019 HMRC monthly exchange rate for capital gains tax?
HMRC's guidance doesn't name a rate source: it asks for the rate in force on the date of each transaction, using a reasonable and consistent method (CG78310). HMRC's monthly exchange rates are widely used for this. If you use them, use them for every figure in the computation (the cost, buying and selling costs, and the proceeds) and keep the same method for later disposals. On a large disposal, confirm the method with your accountant.
What is the difference between the HMRC monthly rate and Bank of England spot rate?
The HMRC monthly rate is one rate that HMRC sets for the whole calendar month and publishes in advance. The Bank of England spot rate is the 4pm fixing on the specific transaction date. Because they are measured differently they can differ, and on a large disposal the gap can change the sterling gain by thousands of pounds. That is why the method should be chosen once and applied consistently, not picked disposal by disposal.
Where does HMRC publish its exchange rates?
HMRC publishes its monthly exchange rates on the Trade Tariff Service (trade-tariff.service.gov.uk), usually on the penultimate Thursday of the month before they apply. TealFX imports them directly, so the figures on this page match HMRC's published data.
Can't I just ask ChatGPT or Claude for the rate?
On its own, an AI assistant estimates a rate from memory or from whatever page a search finds, and asked twice it can give two different figures. Connected to TealFX, it fetches the published rate for each date, the same every time, with a link to where HMRC or the Bank of England published it. You can add TealFX to Claude, ChatGPT and other assistants at tealfx.com/connect.
