Will – Inheritance Tax Part 5 of 5
Consider gifts!
Inheritance Tax can be a significant consideration, with everything over any above the threshold being subject to taxation at 40%. In order to mitigate this and help reduce the level of tax payable, it is worth considering the rules around gifting. Each individual has an annual gift allowance of £3,000 a year. Larger gifts can also be given, although these will only pass out of your estate after seven years.
