Does giving money to children reduce inheritance tax in the UK?
This short explains how UK inheritance tax treats gifts to children, including potentially exempt transfers, the seven-year rule, and the important normal expenditure out of income exemption.
Many people assume gifting automatically reduces inheritance tax, but the outcome depends on how the gift is made and whether it is properly documented. Getting this wrong can lead to unexpected tax on death.
If you are making regular gifts or planning to pass money to your children, understanding the UK IHT rules early can make a significant difference.
