Legal Heir Certificate

Stringent policies governing the inheritance to movable and immovable properties in India is creating a lot of hardships and problems upon Indian Expats/ NRI’s in accessing their inherited assets in India. A Legal heir certificate is now almost mandatory for accessing any type of inherited assets ranging from immovable properties to movable properties like funds in bank accounts, equites, Government bonds, mutual funds, etc. in India. Legal Heir Certificate is a document which is issued by the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) recognizing the lawful living successors of a deceased person, evidencing and helping in claiming assets by the successors of the deceased person.
