Frequently asked questions
Should I make a separate Cyprus will?
If you own assets in Cyprus, a local will usually speeds up probate and avoids conflict-of-law complications. Under the EU Succession Regulation you may also elect the law of your nationality to govern your estate.
What is forced heirship?
Cyprus law reserves a 'statutory portion' of an estate for close family. Foreign nationals can often disapply it by electing their national law, but advice is essential.
