Document background
The Deed of Gift of Shares is commonly used when shareholders wish to transfer their shares without receiving payment, typically in family succession planning, tax planning, or corporate restructuring scenarios. This deed must comply with English and Welsh law requirements and includes essential details such as the identity of the parties, share specifications, and company information. It serves as conclusive evidence of the transfer and helps ensure compliance with company law, tax regulations, and transfer requirements. The document is particularly important as it creates a clear audit trail and helps prevent future disputes about the nature of the transfer.
