Help! - MORTGAGE QUERY

Hi - Was wondering if anyone could answer this for me.. If I took out a loan from my foreign european bank account, would data on this be known to a UK bank when checking my credit in respect to a mortgage application? Or do the credit checks just check on national data, credit history?

    Are you intending not to declare it on your mortgage application?
