Hello, What is the correct tax code for a SIPP that was inherited tax free?

Hi Lynne 576,
There is no standard code as each case is looked at on it's  merit.
Please refer to:
Tax on a private pension you inherit
Thank you.

Hi, I inherited my husband’s SIPP when he passed away age 61, I don’t work and don’t pay tax. HMRC have this year changed the tax code on this tax free SIPP to BR, this can’t be correct?

Hi Lynne 576,
To confirm why your code has changed, and update it if necessary, we would need to access your record.
