Inheritance Tax (IHT) changes and their impact

From April 2026, significant changes to Agricultural Property Relief (APR) and Business Property Relief (BPR) will impact family-run farms and rural businesses. These reforms could affect the tax relief available for agricultural and business assets, leading to potential increases in inheritance tax liabilities.

Our experts can help you navigate these changes by assessing your current tax position and providing tailored strategies to mitigate potential costs. With careful estate and succession planning, we ensure that family-run farms and rural businesses remain financially secure for future generations.
