Inheritance Tax Liability

[BillPoster]

My aunt's brother having just died has left his estate to her. He was from the north so the house i.e. most of his estate is in the north. She has lived all her life in Galway and is a pensioner. The value of his estate is approx £200k thus below the UK IHt threshold of £300k. Questions:

1. Will she have any IHT (or any other tax) liability in ROI?
2. If she has what's the best way to minimse this?

As an Irish resident, your aunt will have a liability to Capital Acquistions Tax in Ireland. She needs to speak to her accountant.
