Power of Attorney in UAE is a formal instrument which enables another individual whether it is your agent, relative, or simply a friend of yours, to represent you in the UAE for any type of transaction or purpose such as property, bank transactions, business and more. For everyone residing outside the UAE, a POA becomes necessary.

Your Assets in the UAE Deserve to be Protected via a UAE Registered Will

In case you own any assets like property, car, or bank account in the UAE or if you have minors under your care who live in the UAE, then the making of a Will becomes all the more necessary for you. In the absence of a Will, the distribution of your assets that exist within the UAE will take place according to the laws of the UAE, which might be vastly different from what you want. The creation of a UAE Will means that your intentions become clear, your family members are looked after properly, and your assets are divided as you wished.

Why Non-Residents Need to Register a Will in the UAE

Many people assume that a Will from their home country automatically covers their UAE-based assets. The truth is that this is far from being the case most times, which leads to unnecessary complications and expenses when handling inheritance cases in the UAE.

  • ⚠️UAE assets may be frozen until court procedures are completed, which can take months or longer.
  • ⚠️If young children are in the UAE, guardianship decisions could be left entirely to the courts if no formal guardian is appointed.
  • ⚠️A spouse or children may not automatically inherit UAE assets the way intended under default procedures.
  • ⚠️Families face significant steps, documentation requirements and costs, causing emotional stress during an already painful time.
  • ⚠️UAE succession rules will determine how assets are distributed, this may differ significantly from home country laws or personal wishes.

Who Should Have a UAE Will?

  • Non-Muslim expatriates who own property, savings, or investments in the UAE
  • Parents with minor children in the UAE who want to designate a guardian upon their passing
  • Business owners with a UAE trade licence or company shares
  • Retirees and long-term investors who have accumulated assets in the Emirates
  • Anyone who holds financial assets in the UAE

Non-residents can often register a Will if they have UAE-based assets, subject to the requirements of the relevant court or registry.

Wills UAE
Can a UAE Will make arrangements regarding the custody of children?2026-05-06T08:20:03+00:00

Yes, indeed! A UAE Will may include the designation of a guardian for minor children who are residing in the UAE. One of the main reasons why non-residents opt to create a Will in the UAE is that without doing so, the decision on guardianship will lie only in the hands of UAE courts, which might not necessarily reflect the wishes of the parents.

Is UAE Will applicable even if the individual has a Will in other countries?2026-05-06T08:19:26+00:00

In order to protect the assets of the UAE, it is necessary to draft an independent Will for UAE jurisdiction because what applies in other jurisdictions is not applicable in the UAE and vice versa.

What will happen to UAE assets when there is no Will?2026-05-06T08:18:42+00:00

Without a Will in the UAE, any property owned by a non-citizen that dies in the UAE will be put under the court supervision of the Probate Process which can take many months. This means the deceased’s property will be put on hold until the court makes its decision and rules out the inheritance distribution of the assets as per the UAE inheritance laws even though they might incorporate Sharia principles. To make sure your assets are inherited as per your wishes, you need to make sure a Will is prepared for the UAE jurisdiction.
