CGT personal exemption per spouse

[TRipley]

Hello,

I am liable for CGT on profit made from disposal of shares in 2012.

Filling out Form 12 tax return and it states that the personal exemption is 1270euro per spouse - as I am completing this form as a married person, does this mean I can claim 2540euro personal exemption from CGT?

thanks,

You are entitled to 1270 for disposals made by you, and your spouse is entitled to 1270 for disposals made by him/her.
