UK inheritance tax rules have changed significantly for British expats. The old domicile rules have been replaced by new long-term residence rules, and from April 2027 most unused pension funds and pension death benefits will also be brought within the value of an estate for inheritance tax purposes.
For some long-term expats, the new rules may reduce their UK inheritance tax exposure on overseas assets. For others, worldwide inheritance tax exposure can continue for several years after leaving the UK.
In this practical webinar, Carl will be joined by Steve Berridge, Technical Services Manager and Trustee at IFGL Pensions. They will explain what the new rules mean for British expats and what you should review before the pension changes take effect in April 2027.
We will cover
- How the new residence rules affect whether your worldwide estate remains exposed to UK inheritance tax
- When overseas assets may fall outside UK inheritance tax
- How long inheritance tax exposure can continue after leaving the UK
- What changes for pensions from April 2027
- How the changes may affect existing pension and estate planning
- What British expats should review now
There will also be a live Q&A after the presentation, giving you the opportunity to ask the team your questions directly.
If you are a British expat with UK pensions, property or substantial overseas assets, this webinar will help you understand whether the new rules change your inheritance tax position and what you should review before April 2027.
