Dubai Property Wills Explained: Estate Planning Rules Overseas Investors Must Know

Who inherits your Dubai property if something happens to you? Own or plan to purchase Dubai real estate from overseas? Visit https://www.dubaipropertypartners.com and quote **WILL** to request a strategic property consultation. A Dubai property is part of your estate. International investors should not assume that a will prepared in their home country will automatically create

the intended result in the UAE. In this video, we explain the practical estate planning steps overseas Dubai property investors should consider, including DIFC Property Wills, Full Wills, beneficiaries, executors, guardianship, off plan assets and cross border planning. The DIFC Courts Wills Service provides eligible non Muslims with a registered framework for directing UAE

assets and, where applicable, appointing guardians for children. **Current DIFC Property Will figures** • Covers up to five UAE properties or shares in 5 properties

• Single Property Will registration: AED 7,500
• Mirror Property Wills for spouses: AED 10,000 **Current DIFC Full Will figures** • Single Full Will registration: AED 10,000
• Mirror Full Wills for spouses: AED 15,000
• Can cover multiple asset classes and relevant guardianship provisions Professional drafting and advisory fees may be additional. Official registration fees and eligibility rules can change, so confirm the current position before applying. **What overseas investors should review** • The legal owner recorded on every title deed or Oqood registration
• Whether the plan covers property only or the wider UAE estate
• Beneficiaries, executors and substitute beneficiaries
• Off plan contracts, payments and provisional registrations
• Guardianship arrangements for eligible minor children
• Mortgages, jointly owned property and company ownership
• Coordination with wills, succession rules and taxes overseas
• Updating the plan after marriage, divorce, children or another purchase A registered will does not remove every legal or probate step. It creates documented instructions within an established framework, helping beneficiaries and executors understand how the investor intended the estate to be managed. Muslim investors and anyone with a complex international estate should obtain specific advice on the succession rules applicable to them. One structure does not suit every investor.
