Which of the following is the overall annual investment limit for an individual savings account (ISA) under the tax rates and allowances given for TX-UK (Finance Act 2025)?

The overall ISA investment limit given in the TX-UK tax tables for Finance Act 2025 is £20,000. This is the total an individual may invest across ISAs in a tax year. The figure of £7,500 relates to rent-a-room relief, not ISAs.

  1. A£7,500
  2. B£20,000Correct
  3. C£12,570
  4. D£10,000

Explanation

The TX-UK tax tables give the overall ISA investment limit as £20,000 per tax year. £7,500 is the rent-a-room limit, so it is a different relief and wrong here.
