French Inheritance Tax Estimator

Use this calculator to make an early estimate of French inheritance tax based on your own share of the inheritance.

Important: enter the value of your share, not the whole estate, unless you are the only beneficiary.
UK tax credit warning: if UK inheritance tax has already been paid, you may be able to enter a credit against the French tax calculation. This should normally relate to your share of the UK-taxed estate. If the UK estate was divided evenly, this may be easier to estimate. Otherwise, calculate your UK-taxed share as a percentage of the UK estate and enter the relevant tax credit figure.

This calculator is for general curiosity and early planning only. It is not legal, tax or financial advice. French inheritance tax depends on the facts of the succession, previous gifts, domicile, asset location, exchange rates, available deductions, treaty relief and notarial calculations. Always rely on your French notary or tax adviser for final figures.
