Why should i register a will in UAE?

The foremost reason for having a Will in the UAE is of course to ensure that your assets can be distributed as per your own instructions. If you do not leave a Will behind, the UAE courts will apply the Sharia Law to the distribution of your moveable as well as immoveable assets in the UAE. Potentially causing significant distress to family and loved ones.

DIFC Wills

Among the various Wills in Dubai, a DIFC Will is the one that benefits the non-Muslim section. A DIFC Will is a legal document made for the purpose of allowing non-Muslim expatriates who have assets in UAE to specifically determine how their assets (financial, real estate, business etc) would be transferred to their nominated beneficiaries, after their lifetime. The DIFC Wills Service Centre, previously known as the DIFC Wills & Probate Registry, is a specialized facility located within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). 

DJD Wills

ADJD Wills are legal documents that allow individuals to specify how their assets will be distributed after their passing, offering peace of mind and avoiding potential family disputes. These Wills are primarily designed for expatriates residing in the UAE and those with assets in the UAE, whether they are movable or immovable. Abu Dhabi Wills can be registered with the Abu Dhabi judicial department (ADJD)

Muslim Wills

In the UAE, Muslim expatriates who are at least 21 years old and own assets have the opportunity to register their Wills through the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department (ADJD). This process is accessible from anywhere in the UAE or around the world. When you register a Will with the ADJD, you gain the ability to choose beneficiaries, decide their share of your assets, and appoint a guardian for any minor children. It’s crucial to understand that the ADJD is the only jurisdiction that allows Will registrations for Muslims in the UAE.

Overseas Wills

Overseas Wills are essential for individuals whose assets are based outside UAE. Through Overseas Wills you can safeguard the distribution of your assets located in a foreign country as per your convenience. Every nation has its own legal structure and rules related to inheritance and transfer of assets. Without making a proper Overseas Will, you might be at risk of your estate distribution being disputed.
