“We had put this off for a while because we didn’t fully understand what was required. The process was much more straightforward than expected once it was properly explained.”
Andrew L., Costa del Sol property owner
“We already had a UK will, so we weren’t sure what was needed in Spain. The differences were explained clearly, and we now feel confident that everything is properly in place.”
David P., UK resident with property in Marbella
Yes. A UK will can cover your worldwide assets, but a Spanish Will makes it quicker and simpler to deal with your assets in Spain, helping avoid delays, translations and added costs.
Spanish inheritance law includes forced heirship, meaning part of your estate must pass to close family members. This is different from the UK, where you generally have more freedom over how your estate is distributed.
Potentially. In Spain, inheritance tax is paid by the beneficiaries, not the estate. The amount depends on the region, the value of the assets, and the relationship to the deceased.
Yes. If you own assets in Spain, your beneficiaries may be liable for Spanish inheritance tax, even if they live in the UK.
