Important questions will be answered such as “does my Cypriot property affect my Inheritance Tax position in the UK?” and “does my UK Will effectively deal with how I wish my UK and my Cypriot estate to be distributed?”
The event will also touch on how to plan for and manage Inheritance situated in the Occupied Areas of Cyprus, as well as on how to perform valid transfers of property ownership should you choose to do so.
