FAQ

Do I need a will in the UAE if I am a non-Muslim expatriate?

Yes. Without a registered will, your estate may be distributed according to Sharia law by default. A registered will under DIFC or Abu Dhabi Judicial Department ensures your assets are distributed per your wishes.

What is a DIFC will?

A DIFC will is a legal instrument for non-Muslims that allows you to register your will under the DIFC Wills and Probate Registry, offering clarity, control, and enforceability over asset distribution and guardianship.

Can Muslims create wills in the UAE?

Yes, but Muslim wills in the UAE must follow Sharia law. You can designate up to one-third of your estate to beneficiaries of your choice if it does not violate Islamic inheritance rules.

What are the differences between DIFC and Abu Dhabi wills?

DIFC wills apply to non-Muslims and are registered in the Dubai International Financial Centre, while Abu Dhabi Judicial Department wills are available in both English and Arabic and can cover residents across all Emirates.

Do I need to be present in the UAE to draft and register a will?

In most cases, no. Many wills can be drafted and even registered remotely via online notarization platforms or authorized legal representatives, depending on the jurisdiction.

Can a will cover guardianship of children?

Yes. You can specify temporary and permanent guardians for minor children in your will to avoid default court-appointed guardianship in the event of unforeseen circumstances.

How much does will registration cost in the UAE?

Costs vary by type and jurisdiction—DIFC wills typically start from AED 5,000–10,000, while other options may be more affordable. Fees may also apply for legal drafting and notarization.

Can a will be challenged in the UAE?

Yes, but having a professionally drafted and properly registered will significantly reduces the likelihood of successful legal challenges.
