I7.101 Business property relief (BPR)—overview

Business property relief (BPR), sometimes known as business relief is a key relief from IHT, reducing the value of business property chargeable to IHT. BPR reduces the transfer of value before any other exemptions or reliefs are deducted. BPR is available for chargeable transfers on death, in lifetime and for trustees on exit charges and ten year charges. For transfers by trustees see I7.161–I7.161B.

It is available on relevant business property at either 50% or 100%. For rates of relief applicable to particular types of property see I7.103.

A detailed discussion of what is relevant property can be found at I7.104.
