Inheritance Tax (IHT) is charged at 40% on the value of an estate above the nil-rate band thresholds. The standard nil-rate band is £325,000. An additional residence nil-rate band of £175,000 applies when a main home is left to direct descendants. Married couples can transfer unused allowances to their surviving spouse.
💡
Pro Tip
Charitable donations of 10%+ of the net estate reduce the IHT rate to 36% on the remainder. Life insurance written in trust does not form part of the estate and can cover the IHT bill.
