IHT400 - Confused by something that's probably basic.

In the section 'Contact details of the person dealing with the estate', I'm not sure what is being asked for in box 20 'Contact's reference'? Based on the text below the box, it looks as though it's asking for the Inheritance Tax reference number (Which is also requested elsewhere in the form)? Is this correct?

Thanks in advance for any help.

    I expect it just means your own reference (if for example you were a firm of solicitors, you'd have a file reference). No need to insert anything otherwise.
