How much does it cost to register a will at Dubai Courts?

The Dubai Courts government fee for attesting a will made by a non-Muslim is AED 2,000, plus AED 100 for the electronic data entry of each party. Attestation of a translator's signature adds AED 25 per page, and the legal translation and preparation of the text are separate costs. At the DIFC Courts, registration starts at AED 5,000 for a Guardianship Will and reaches AED 10,000 for a single Full Will.

How do I register a will in Dubai as a non-Muslim?

The will is prepared in Arabic, as a bilingual document, or in English with a legal Arabic translation attached. You then sign it personally before the notary in the presence of two witnesses and pay the fee. The will is recorded in the Register of Wills of non-Muslims at the Dubai Courts.

What is the difference between a DIFC will and a Dubai Courts will?

A Dubai Courts will is notarised in Arabic or with an Arabic translation, while a DIFC Courts will is registered in English. The Dubai Courts attestation fee is AED 2,000, against AED 5,000 to AED 10,000 for a single DIFC will, and each court decides the estates under the wills in its own register. EGSH registers wills with the Dubai Courts.

What happens if a husband dies without a will in the UAE?

For a non-Muslim foreigner residing in the UAE, the wife receives half of the UAE estate and the children share the other half equally, sons and daughters alike. Until the court appoints an administrator, the estate cannot be disposed of beyond funeral costs and the necessary expenses of dependants, so accounts and property remain blocked.

Is a will mandatory for expats in the UAE?

No. Without a will, the estate of a non-Muslim foreigner residing in the UAE is divided by the default rules: half to the spouse and half equally to the children. A registered will lets the testator decide who inherits and who administers the estate.

Do I need witnesses to register a will at Dubai Courts?

Yes. Dubai Law No. 15 of 2017 requires the testator to sign the will, or affix a seal or fingerprint, in the presence of two witnesses.

Can I appoint a guardian for my children in my will?

Guardians for minor children are appointed through a Guardianship Will registered with the DIFC Courts, which names interim and permanent guardians. The DIFC Courts issue guardianship orders under that will if the guardians meet the eligibility requirements and the appointment is consistent with UAE public policy. A Dubai Courts will under Dubai Law No. 15 of 2017 deals with the distribution of the estate.

Can I register a will online in Dubai?

The DIFC Courts offer registration by video conference for their own wills. At EGSH, you can book online and have the will text prepared and translated, and you sign the will in person before the notary for registration with the Dubai Courts.

Can a registered will be challenged in UAE courts?

Yes. Any interested party can ask the court to interpret or contest a will, and the court checks the testator's capacity and age, the executor, the two witnesses, ownership of the willed property and conformity with public order. A condition that contradicts public order is void, while the rest of the will remains valid.

Non-Muslim Will Registration at Dubai Courts

How Will Registration at Dubai Courts Works

Non-Muslim Wills Under Dubai Law

Will registration in the UAE gives a non-Muslim with assets in the country control over who inherits them. In Dubai, will registration means the will is attested by the notary and recorded in the Register of Wills of non-Muslims kept at the Dubai Courts under Dubai Law No. 15 of 2017. A registered will takes precedence over intestate succession, so the default shares of Federal Decree-Law No. 41 of 2022 on Civil Personal Status apply only where there is no will.

The testator must be a non-Muslim of full capacity aged at least 21, the will must name an executor, and it is signed in the presence of two witnesses. The text is written in Arabic, as a bilingual Arabic and English document, or in English with an attached Arabic translation by a legal translator. The government fee for attesting the will is AED 2,000, with AED 100 for the electronic data entry of each party.

At EGSH, a single team in the Notary Department handles the will text, its Arabic translation and the signing before the notary, so the will is ready for registration without queues and without visits to separate offices.

Who Can Register a Will at Dubai Courts

Dubai Law No. 15 of 2017 Concerning Administration of Estates and Implementation of Wills of Non-Muslims in the Emirate of Dubai applies to all wills and estates of non-Muslims in the emirate, including in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). It creates a Register of Wills of non-Muslims at the Dubai Courts and at the DIFC Courts, and the court that holds the Register later decides disputes over the will.

A will is entered in the Register when the testator is non-Muslim, of full capacity and at least 21 years old, and is not under interdiction, bankrupt or barred from disposing of property. The will names an executor and states how the property is distributed, and the testator signs it, or affixes a seal or fingerprint, in the presence of two witnesses. The willed property must belong to the testator, the will must not contradict public order or morals, and the prescribed fees must be paid.

Federal Decree-Law No. 41 of 2022 applies to non-Muslim UAE citizens and non-Muslim foreigners residing in the UAE, and allows a will covering the testator's entire estate in the country. Dubai property, bank accounts, shares in companies and vehicles can all be included. Real property in Dubai is governed by the legislation in force in the emirate, whatever law the testator chooses for the rest of the estate.

Will Writing and Legal Translation into Arabic

The will text is built from the testator's instructions: who inherits, in what shares, which assets are covered and who acts as executor. The executor is mandatory under Dubai Law No. 15 of 2017: the executor must be of full capacity, accept the role and hold no interest in the willed property, and an alternative executor can be named. A will can benefit named individuals, an unborn child whose existence is confirmed or a group, and can be made for charitable purposes. A bequest can also be conditional or take effect on a future date.

Notarial instruments in Dubai are written in Arabic. An English will is registered either as one bilingual document with both texts signed on every page, or with an Arabic translation by a certified legal translator attached and signed together with the original. The Dubai Courts work in Arabic, so the names, passport details and asset descriptions in the Arabic text must match the passports and title deeds exactly. The signed will must carry no deletions or insertions, so every correction is made before signing.

How We Register Your Will at Dubai Courts

At signing, the notary verifies the testator's identity by passport or Emirates ID and confirms capacity, consent and understanding of the content. The testator signs personally before two witnesses, the fee is paid, and the will is recorded in the Register of Wills of non-Muslims at the Dubai Courts. The notary declines a will that conflicts with public order or where capacity or consent cannot be confirmed.

A notary application that is not completed within 60 days of its registration is struck off and must be filed again with a new fee.

Registration records the will, and after death it is implemented by a written order of the Dubai Courts, which review it again when the estate is opened. This court stage is known as probate in Dubai.

Guardianship Wills for Children

A Dubai Courts will under Dubai Law No. 15 of 2017 sets out how the testator's property is disposed of after death. Guardians for minor children are appointed through a Guardianship Will registered with the DIFC Courts, which names interim guardians, who care for the children immediately, and permanent guardians, who take over in the long term.

The DIFC Courts issue interim and permanent guardianship orders under the will, provided the nominated guardians meet the eligibility requirements of the DIFC Rules and the appointment does not contravene UAE public policy. The fee is AED 5,000 for a single Guardianship Will and AED 7,500 for mirror wills of both parents, and the pre-registration checks take place in person at the DIFC Courts Wills Service.

Will Registration Fees at Dubai Courts

The fee for attesting a will made by a non-Muslim is a Dubai Courts government fee set by Executive Council Resolution No. (72) of 2025, in force since 15 September 2025. It is AED 2,000 for the attestation and AED 100 for the electronic data entry of each party to the instrument. Where an English will is accompanied by an Arabic translation, attestation of the translator's signature costs AED 25 per page of the original. The legal translation and the preparation of the text are separate costs.

Dubai Courts vs DIFC Courts Wills

Non-Muslims in Dubai register wills with either the Dubai Courts or the DIFC Courts, and the choice between the two registers sets the language of the will, its cost and the court that later decides the estate. EGSH registers wills with the Dubai Courts.

What Happens If You Die Without a Will in the UAE

Without a will, the UAE estate of a non-Muslim foreigner residing in the country is distributed under Federal Decree-Law No. 41 of 2022. Half goes to the surviving husband or wife, and the other half is divided equally among the children, with no difference between sons and daughters. With no children, the estate passes to the parents and siblings in the order the decree sets out.

Heirs of a foreigner may ask the court to apply the law of the deceased's own country under the Civil Transactions Law, unless a registered will provides otherwise. Until the court appoints an administrator, no part of the estate can be disposed of beyond funeral costs and the necessary expenses of dependants, so accounts and property stay blocked through that stage.

Since July 2023, the Dubai Courts have operated a dedicated division for the inheritance of non-Muslims and the execution of their wills. The court decision is then used to register heirs' ownership of Dubai property with the Dubai Land Department (DLD).

Changing, Revoking or Challenging a Registered Will

A registered will is changed by registering a new will through the same procedure. A new registered will that contradicts the earlier one causes the earlier will to lapse, and the revocation of a will must itself be registered on the Register.

A bequest also lapses when the testator sells or otherwise transfers the willed property, when the beneficiary dies first and no alternative beneficiary is named, or when the property is destroyed. A will made in another country is not on the Register, so it is implemented only through a court judgment in proceedings brought by the beneficiary.

Any interested party can ask the court to interpret or contest a registered will. The court tests it against the validity conditions: the testator's capacity and age, an executor, two witnesses, ownership of the willed property and conformity with public order. A condition that contradicts public order is void while the rest of the will stands, and each beneficiary has 60 days from notification to accept or renounce the bequest.

Went there for ejari cancellation. Excellent place. Staff was so cooperative. Ms Maria and Ms Fatima assist me and it was a fast process.

This is probably the best government service hub in Dubai. You come in, asked to be seated, and the staff will come to you instead of standing on the reception and on queue. They will offer you tea and water are available at each table. Really embodies the Emirati hospitality and what seamstresses Dubai is known for.

I was here the morning of this post. The concierge like service with a contact person arranging for you all the difeerent interactions is making the interactuon as smooth as possible. A truly delightful experience and a true commitment to service excellence, thank you for the great experience and for the initiative to present government interactions in this way!

Outstanding service — fast, friendly, and highly professional. Thank you very much!

I’ve been here for the first time and I can say that this organization definitely worth to come here and make all proceeds with their help!

So I’m very grateful to Mrs Zara and her support during all the process❤️

Highly recommend Natalia for her outstanding customer service and dedication!
