Do I pay tax on pay-out of a life policy?

Under current tax rules, pay-outs for life claims are free from income tax and capital gains. However, in some circumstances your pay-out may be subject to Inheritance Tax.

Everyone's situation is different and please bear in mind that tax rules may change in the future.
