Hi all,


I have been doing a lot of reading on the 30-day rule for selling shares that are a part of an ESS, and from what I can see, it should always apply unless you sell the shares after the 30-days (obviously).


Is this correct? Or is there any circumstances in which the 30-day rule does not apply? i.e. employee has left the employer giving the shares etc.?


Thanks in advance

Hi @Kiki1999


It depends on the type of scheme you're in too. It's best to get financial advice before entering into an ESS scheme.
