Issue certificate of inheritance
Service Description
You have inherited. If you now want to dispose of the inheritance, a certificate of inheritance is required in many cases so that you can identify yourself in business transactions. This is particularly the case if
- there is no will, i.e. intestate succession has occurred,
- a plot of land is part of the estate and there is only a private will and not a notarial will,
- the content of the will is not clear.
The certificate of inheritance must be applied for separately.
A simple letter is not sufficient. Since an affidavit must be made stating the correctness of the necessary information, you must go in person to a notary or to the probate court.
Who should I contact?
A certificate of inheritance is issued by the probate court at the competent local court issues
Which documents are required?
In the case of a certificate of inheritance according to legal succession, the succession must be substantiated by civil status documents (birth certificates, death certificate, marriage certificate, excerpts from the family register) for all eligible relatives. Please do not forget your identity card.
