Inheritance Tax (IHT) is a tax that’s payable on the estate of someone who has died, including any gifts they made during their lifetime.

The standard IHT rate is 40%, but there are some exceptions – for example, if you leave your entire estate to a charity or certain other organisations, the rate may be reduced to 36%.

IHT is only payable if the value of the estate (including any gifts made during their lifetime) exceeds the IHT threshold, which is currently £325,000.

If you’re a UK resident in England and Wales, IHT is usually payable on your worldwide assets. If you’re not a UK resident, IHT is usually only payable on UK assets. As you can see, it can be an extremely complicated to deal with tax after someone has died.

As such, people often turn to professional will writing companies, probate services and comprehensive legal services to deal with this tax on their behalf.

The cost of your will writing service depends on a variety of factors, such as its complexity, the presence of overseas properties or other assets and whether you require single or mirror wills. If you choose to distribute your belongings, including multiple assets and overseas investments to several family members, it will often be more complicated than simply covering your immediate family in the will.
