Deed of Variation for Wills
If you’ve been left something in a Will, but want to pass this on to someone else, a deed of variation will protect your tax position.
If you were to die within seven years of redirecting the gift to someone else without a deed of variation your estate could be liable to pay unnecessary inheritance tax.
A deed of variation that follows statutory rules can save your family inheritance tax.
