For some families, the impact of these changes could be significant. In this episode, James explores the planning opportunities available to British expatriates, including the key considerations for those looking to reduce future inheritance tax exposure:

  • Can people simply transfer their pension out of the UK to preserve the status quo? Is that feasible for Spanish residents?
  • What else can people do to reduce their liability to UK inheritance tax?
  • How Blevins Franks help British expatriates in Spain improve their pension funds? What options are available to them?

Tax rates, scope and reliefs may change. Any statements concerning taxation are based upon our understanding of current taxation laws and practices which are subject to change. Tax information has been summarised; individuals should seek personalised advice.
