What is inheritance tax?

Inheritance tax is a tax that may be payable on an individual’s estate after they die. There are a number of factors that determine whether it needs to be paid, including the size of the estate and the types of transfer made.

You’ll need to complete inheritance tax returns and submit them to the Capital Taxes Office.
