Instructions
Step 1
All heirs must personally apply to a notary to open an inheritance case. This must be done within 6 months after the death of the testator. The right to inheritance is issued after six months. It is possible to divide property only after obtaining the right to it.
Step 2
Select a notary office according to the last must of the testator's residence. If this fact is not known, then contact the notary of the region where the most valuable part of the inheritance is located.
Step 3
If you have not applied within 6 months to claim your right to inheritance, you must provide documentary evidence that the reason was valid. If the notary considers the reason not valid or you do not have documentary evidence that it is valid, then the opening of the inheritance case will have to be done in court.
Step 4
When the inheritance is divided, everything is divided equally among the heirs. If there is a will and it indicates what exactly is inherited by each individual person, then this is what he receives. If only the names of the heirs are indicated in the will, and what exactly each inherits is not specified, the inheritance is divided equally.
Step 5
The heirs can agree on the share of each or divide everything in court. The owners of the testator have the right to preferential receipt of the share that was in the common property. You can use the right of advantage only for 3 years. After this period, all pre-emptive rights are lost.
Step 6
The inheritance can be abandoned in favor of another heir, or abandoned entirely. You do not have to apply for your inheritance rights. Your entire share will be divided among the other heirs.
Step 7
The spouse or spouse is entitled to half the share of all inherited property.
Step 8
After the period of 6 months has expired, all heirs receive the right to inherit. From that moment on, they are considered the rightful owners of their share of the property.
Step 9
A document on the right to inheritance issued by a notary is subject to registration at the state registration center.
