Inheritance tax (IHT) calculator

Calculates any potential IHT liability based on your client's assets and liabilities.

Our Inheritance Tax (IHT) Calculator helps you assess a client’s potential IHT position based on their assets and liabilities.

The IHT calculator will say if an estate may be subject to IHT if the client were to pass away today. It calculates liability by considering assets like savings, investments, property, and other possessions.

Inheritance tax can be complex. This tool aims to give a quick overview. A deeper assessment of an individual's specific circumstances will be needed in order to offer more detailed guidance. For a quick assessment, just enter the best estimate of your client’s assets in the fields below.

Please note that this calculator doesn't take into account any gifts that your client has made in their lifetime which may be subject to inheritance tax. It also doesn't consider any assets that are under trust that may be liable to IHT on your client’s death or any residence nil rate band or transferred nil-rate or residence nil rate band from a pre-deceased spouse.

This calculator is very general in nature and won't exactly reflect your client’s personal tax situation. The information shouldn't be construed as legal or tax advice. Tax benefits may vary as a result of statutory change and their value will depend on individual circumstances."
