UAE Inheritance Law for Expats (Non-Muslims)
Under Federal Decree Law No. 41 of 2022/2024, non-Muslims may choose UAE civil law or their home country law.
Our will lawyer team ensures your legal choice is clearly documented, especially when structuring DIFC or Abu Dhabi Wills.
Without a registered will, assets may be distributed according to default rules, creating avoidable legal risk.
Inheritance is governed by Sharia (Faraid) principles, with fixed shares for heirs.
Legaly’s will and trust lawyers ensure compliance with Sharia law while maintaining clarity, structure, and legal enforceability.

Frequently Asked Questions
A will may help you clarify how assets should be handled. The appropriate arrangements depend on your circumstances and the relevant inheritance and registration rules.
The DIFC Courts Wills Service is designed for eligible non-Muslims aged 18 or over with relevant UAE assets or guardianship needs. Conditions should be checked with the official registry.
Options include Full, Property, Financial Assets, Business Owners, Digital Assets and Guardianship Wills. The official DIFC Courts Wills Service maintains the current categories and eligibility rules.
Guardianship provisions may be available under an appropriate will framework. Eligibility and applicable rules should be assessed.
The relevant succession framework, family situation and location of assets affect the estate process. Seek advice rather than assuming one universal rule applies.
Official registration fees and professional legal fees are separate unless specifically quoted together. Request a clear fee breakdown.
Cross-border effect depends on the law of the country where assets are located and the will type. Coordinated advice may be necessary.
Amendment procedures vary depending on the registry and will type. Review major life changes such as marriage, divorce, birth and asset purchases.
