Mortis causa donations with immediate delivery are taxed as inheritances but do not qualify for the Art. 20.2.c reduction

A query was raised regarding whether a mortis causa donation involving the immediate transfer of assets can benefit from inheritance tax rates and reductions. The DGT ruled that these are taxed as mortis causa acquisitions, with tax accrual occurring at the time of signing. However, the reduction under Article 20.2.c of the LISD is not applicable because the deceased has not yet passed away.
