Non-Muslim expats in the UAE can register a will under the Civil Personal Status Law for non-Muslims through several recognised channels, including Dubai Courts, Abu Dhabi Judicial Department, Ministry of Justice notary services, DIFC Wills Service Centre, and ADGM Courts, or through their home country’s embassy or consulate if the service is offered; the will should clearly list executors, beneficiaries, guardians for minors (if any), and details of movable and immovable assets, and DIFC wills must meet specific format and witness requirements, typically in English and signed before authorised officials — making early legal guidance useful to ensure validity and smooth estate administration. Do you think more expats should be encouraged to register wills locally, or do most still rely on home-country arrangements?
