Inheritance Tax

Inheritance tax (IHT) is often overlooked as many see it as a tax which only comes into play on death. There are various ways to plan ahead to keep your exposure to IHT to a minimum on death such as efficient use of making gifts using the allowances available. For example many who receive a high income from salaries, pensions and investments are unaware that they can make tax free gifts out of surplus income and in this respect we work closely with clients to identify any surplus and advise on the best way to make full use of this relief. We work closely with our clients and their legal advisors to ensure that their wealth is protected for future generations by using tax efficient wills and trusts (if appropriate), the timely use of reliefs for passing on business assets and agricultural property.

Main Street Music have used Harris Bassett Accountants for the last 2 years.  During this time we have always found them to be extremely helpful in any of our accounting needs from payroll to VAT and general accounting.  We are / were complete novices  when it came to payroll and VAT and found Harris Bassett’s help invaluable.  Further to this in our 8 years of business in Pembrokeshire we find Harris Bassett’s fees very reasonable and will continue to use them.
