Where United Kingdom rules reach your Indian property

01

Long term UK resident test

If you have been UK resident for ten of the last twenty tax years, your worldwide estate including Indian property comes into scope for inheritance tax.

02

IHT417 foreign assets

HMRC asks you to enclose any professional valuations obtained, with photographs and the exchange rate you used on the date of death. That is exactly how we build the report.

03

The 1956 treaty

The old estate duty convention between India and the UK still matters for some families. Worth asking your solicitor before you assume.

04

Form E and single joint experts

English family courts run on a single jointly instructed expert. We prepare reports in that format, with the independence declaration attached.

One property, sometimes two valuations. Your filing in United Kingdom often needs the value at one date, and your Indian filing needs it at another. We prepare both together so the two never contradict each other.
