UAE Will Registration

Two registration pathways.
YouWill advises on both.

YouWill advises on and coordinates registration across the two main UAE will registration frameworks. Your advisor will recommend the right pathway based on where you live and where your assets are.

Most Common
ADJD · Abu Dhabi Judicial Department

Available to all UAE residents

Covers UAE-based moveable and immoveable assets. Available to all UAE residents irrespective of religion. Valid and enforceable across all seven emirates. The most widely used registration pathway for UAE expatriates.

Dubai Residents
Dubai Courts Will

For Dubai-based residents

Dubai Courts provides a UAE compliant will registration pathway for residents whose primary assets and domicile are in Dubai, especially Non-Muslim residents. Recognised across the UAE.

Important Note
For Non-Muslim Residents

Direct your estate as you wish

Both ADJD and Dubai Courts pathways are open to all UAE residents irrespective of religion. Non-Muslim residents in particular benefit from a registered UAE will to override the default Federal Personal Status Law distribution.
