The Non-Contentious Probate Fees (Amendment)Order 2003
This Order amends the Non-Contentious Probate Fees Order (S.I. 1999/688) so that a special fee of £8 is payable on an application for a grant of probate or letters of administration in respect of an estate exempt from inheritance tax by virtue of section 154 of the Inheritance Tax Act 1984, that is, where the deceased is certified to be a member of the armed forces of the Crown killed on active service. The fee which would be payable but for this Order is £50, and an additional £80 for a personal application.
