IHTM27042 - Foreign land or buildings: loss on sale of foreign land

The provisions of IHTA84/S190 also apply to foreign land. The procedure is the same as that for relief for loss on sale of land in the UK, ( IHTM33001) however the exchange rate at death must be used to convert the value of the sold land to sterling.

Shares and Assets Valuation (Foreign) must be informed of any sales of foreign land.
