# How do I add overseas assets to my case?

## This article will guide you through how to add overseas assets to your case and provide some useful hints and tips.

In the case you are working on:

- Click the asset tile you want to add. As an example, we are using a holiday home in Spain therefore adding a new **Land/building** asset:

- Choose to enter the address manually (the address finder will not work for non-UK properties)

- Enter the **Executor's estimated value (£) and the Surveyor's formal evaluation (£)** in £ sterling (you could use a currency convertor if required)

![20220120 Overseas Asset - Values](https://knowledge.exizent.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/Knowledge%20Base%20screenshots/20220120%20Overseas%20Asset%20-%20Values.png?width=600&name=20220120%20Overseas%20Asset%20-%20Values.png)

- When recording the **Asset location**, ensure **Elsewhere** is selected 

![20220120 Overseas Assets - Location](https://knowledge.exizent.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/Knowledge%20Base%20screenshots/20220120%20Overseas%20Assets%20-%20Location.png?width=281&name=20220120%20Overseas%20Assets%20-%20Location.png)

❗ Ensure the **Asset value** is recorded in **£ sterling**

❗ Ensure the **Asset location** is recorded as **Elsewhere**

💡 Selecting **Elsewhere** as the location allows Exizent to group foreign assets together in court and inheritance tax forms

💡 All other asset tiles work the same, just select **Elsewhere** as the asset location for any other overseas assets

💡To add these assets into the IHT417 please see this article on generating and completing manual schedules: [How do I prepare an IHT400 form and the relevant schedules?](https://knowledge.exizent.com/iht400-form?hsLang=en)
