The UK Government has confirmed reforms to Agricultural Property Relief (APR) and Business Property Relief (BPR) that are scheduled to come into affect from 6 April 2026.

What’s Changing?

• A new £1 million allowance will apply to the combined value of property qualifying for 100% APR or 100 % BPR for individual estates.
• For any qualifying property over that £1 million allowance, the relief rate drops from 100% to 50%.
• For trusts, a £1 million allowance will apply to qualifying agricultural and business property.
• The rate of BPR for certain shares will be reduced - shares admitted to trading on a recognised stock exchange but designated as ‘not listed’, and shares listed on foreign exchanges which are not a recognised stock exchange, will see relief fall to 50%.
• The option to pay Inheritance Tax (IHT) by interest-free instalments over 10 years will be extended to all property eligible for APR or BPR.
• Standardised calculation of trust exit charge rates - for a trust exit event (after the 10-year anniversary) the calculation will be based on unrelieved values, regardless of when the exit happens.

Scheduled to take effect from 6 April 2027, most unused pension funds and pension death benefits will be included in someone’s estate for the purposes of Inheritance Tax (IHT).

What’s Changing?

• If a person dies on or after 6 April 2027, any unused pension money and certain death benefits from their pension scheme will count towards their estate when IHT is calculated.
• Personal representatives will be responsible for reporting and paying any IHT due on these pension assets.

What’s Not Changing

• Death in service benefits paid from a registered pension scheme will not be included in the IHT calculation.
• The existing IHT principles providing exemption for death benefits passing to a surviving spouse or civil partner, and registered charities will be maintained.

Get prepared ahead of these changes - contact us today to find out more about our trusts and wills and estate planning services.

Many couples reach informal agreements about finances during divorce. Without a consent order, those agreements are not legally binding.

This means either party can return years later to make claims against pensions, property, or income, even if both believed matters were settled.

A consent order formalises your settlement. It makes the terms enforceable and helps prevent future disputes, offering greater certainty for the future.

Speak to our Family Law team today to take the next step in protecting your financial future.

When a marriage ends, there is no fixed formula for dividing assets. To reach a fair outcome, the court looks at the factors set out in Section 25 of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973.

These include:
✔ Housing and financial needs of both parties
✔ Income, earning capacity, property and other financial resources
✔ The standard of living during the marriage
✔ Age of each party and the duration of the marriage
✔ Contributions made, both financial and non-financial (such as childcare)
✔ Any disabilities that may affect needs or earning capacity
✔ Above all, the welfare of any children

Every case is unique, which is why tailored legal advice is essential. Our family law team can guide you through the process and help protect your future.
