Inheritance Tax Planning Bedfordshire
When you’ve worked hard throughout your life, you want to be able to pass on the fruits of that work to your loved ones when you die. Financial planning maximises the amount your family will receive. Inheritance tax planning is an important factor to include in this. It could save your beneficiaries up to 40% tax on your estate.

If your assets are valued at more than £325,000 at the time of your death, your beneficiaries could be liable for up 40% tax. The assets that are amongst those used to calculate whether or not you are liable for Inheritance Tax are:
- Property and land
- Bank accounts
- Jewellery and art
- Cars
- Shares
The nil-rate band of £325,000 would be subtracted from the total, and the remainder is taxed at a rate of 40%. In certain circumstances using the ‘residence nil rate’ band could boost this threshold to £500,000 or even £1,000,000 if exempt gifting between spouses is used.
Inheritance Tax planning helps Bedfordshire clients to minimise Inheritance Tax liability, in order that they can pass on more of their estate to loved ones, rather than suffering significant tax charges paid to HMRC. To achieve this Harpur Wealth can explore the use of the ‘residence nil-rate band’, ‘gifting’ and ‘pensions’ as three of a number of possible components that can be used in the development of an effective Inheritance Tax strategy.
