If you own property, have a bank account, a car, or other assets in Spain, you need to write a Spanish Will.
Why make a Spanish Will?
Because it makes the Spanish probate process much easier and simpler for your inheritors.
It also will cost the inheritors less money dealing with the process.
If you don’t have a Spanish Will the inheritor will have to wait until the official document from your country is received (documentation that will need to be duly legalized or with an apostille and it must be translated by a national public translated). As all this process can take longer, you might incur penalties as in Spain, considering that the deadline to proceed with the inheritance taxes is within six months from the date of death.
We will help you write your last will and testament in Spain, accompanying you at the Public Notary on the day. We will explain and advise you on acceptance of property or assets upon death or whilst alive, find assets and insurances that were unknown, and settle the corresponding taxes in Spain.
Plan your State with an International Will, considering its implications for Tax and Real State in Spain. Also, understand how it can be affected by changes in Immigration status.
