Martin Lewis clarifies that only about 4% of estates face Inheritance Tax, with exemptions and thresholds reducing liability.
Financial expert Martin Lewis reassures that only about one in 25 estates pays Inheritance Tax.
Assets left to a spouse or civil partner are tax-free, and the basic tax-free threshold is £325,000.
This can increase to £500,000 if a main residence is passed to children, and unused allowances can be transferred to a spouse.
Estates above the threshold face a 40% tax rate on the excess.
