The rule applies unless the donor has prescribed otherwise or the circumstances show that a different intention existed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis means that a larger gift to a child – such as money for a down payment, a tenant-owner apartment, or real estate – can affect how much the child later receives from the estate. Therefore, it is wise to document both the \u003cstrong\u003edonor's intent\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003evalue of the gift at the time of receipt\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIf the gift is not to be an advance on inheritance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince the law contains a presumption for gifts to forced heirs, a clear dissenting provision is required if the donor wants the gift to be completely independent of the child's future inheritance.

It is therefore important that any special repayment conditions are documented at the time the gift is made.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eReinforced protection of the forced share – larger gifts can still be challenged\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA clause stating that a gift shall not be counted as an advance on inheritance does not mean that all other inheritance law rules are set aside. According to Chapter 7, Section 4 of the Inheritance Code, a gift may, under certain conditions, be treated as a will if its purpose has been of such a character. This can bring into play the forced heirs' reinforced protection of their forced share (laglott).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is particularly important for large gifts late in life, gifts where the donor in practice retains the benefit of the property, or arrangements that clearly aim to affect the forced share.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDeed of Gift for money and personal property\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template for money and personal property includes, among other things:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003edonor and gift recipient,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eamount or detailed description of the property,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eexplicit advance-on-inheritance clause,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003evalue at receipt,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eseparate property (enskild egendom), returns, and replacement property,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ecompletion and handover,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003esignatures and voluntary witnessing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor personal property, the Act (1936:83) regulates when a gift becomes binding or completed.

However, if the recipient pays compensation or assumes mortgages, stamp duty may be triggered. Lantmäteriet then compares the compensation with the previous year's assessed value (taxeringsvärde). If the compensation amounts to \u003cstrong\u003e85 percent or more\u003c\/strong\u003e of the relevant assessed value, stamp duty may be charged as with a sale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTax continuity for real estate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor gratuitous real estate gifts, the continuity principle is normally applied.
