New Requirements

8/7/2026

You may notice that we're asking for a little more information than we have in the past.
From 1 July 2026, Australian law requires law firms to verify the identity of clients and, in some cases, collect additional information before providing certain legal services. These new requirements are part of Australia's efforts to combat money laundering, terrorism financing and other serious financial crime.

Do you pay tax on inheritance in Queensland

No, Queensland does not have an inheritance tax. However, other taxes may apply:

Capital Gains Tax (CGT) – If you sell an inherited property (exemptions apply, such as selling a primary residence within two years).
Superannuation death benefits – Tax may apply if paid to a non-dependent.
Income from inherited assets – Rental income or dividends must be declared for tax purposes.

We can help you understand any tax obligations related to your inheritance.
