Probate is a certified copy of a will so proved, so when some one dies and leaves you money, assets or property, you would pay Inheritance Tax which is generally paid out of the Estate before you receive the inheritance. There are three types of Tax, Income Tax which is interest earned on money, dividend paid on shares and rental income on property. Next, you may have to pay Capital Gains Tax if you sell, give away or exchange an asset and its gone up in value since the date of death, Next Inheritance Tax which comes out of the deceased's estate before the inheritance is passed on. Inheritance Tax is only paid on the deceased's estate if the value exceeds £325.000. For further information refer to documents issued by HM Revenue and Customs

Pertaining to a will what does pro bated mean?

Before the estate comprising a will can be passed on as set out in the will (by the executor) the exact size of the estate has to be recorded, all bills settled and all taxes due on the estate have to be payed (income tax and inheritance tax). The will (and proof that this has been done) has then to be presented to a probate court (which will keep the original will as a public record) which grants probate on the will. The probate is a document from the court formally authorizing the executor to sell property, transfer assets etc as set out in the will. The probate document is sent, along with the executors instructions to the organizations holding the assets. Without the probate document the organizations can not legally act on the executors instructions.
