You will not have to pay Capital Gains Tax on any gains you make on your shares if you move them to an ISA . You must transfer your shares to your ISA within 90 days of when you took out your SIP or SAYE shares. Next month will be the 3rd time I've done this with my SAYE scheme. You will need a Letter of Appropriation to show the shares qualify for the SAYE scheme, if you get the shares as a paper certificate you will also need to transfer them to digital shares using a Crest form. Your S&S Isa provider should have the required forms and information
