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)
- When recording the Asset location, ensure Elsewhere is selected
❗ 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?
