Your Questions Asked
International probate refers to the process of administering an estate that includes assets in more than one country. This can involve dealing with different legal systems, tax rules, and procedures to ensure assets are collected and distributed correctly across jurisdictions.
In many cases, a UK Grant of Probate is still required to deal with assets located in England and Wales, even if the deceased lived abroad. Additional legal steps may also be needed in other countries where assets are held, depending on local laws and requirements.
International probate typically takes longer than standard probate due to the added complexity of dealing with multiple jurisdictions, foreign authorities, and legal systems. Timescales can vary significantly depending on the countries involved and the complexity of the estate.
