Understanding Probate and Inheritance in Iran
Probate in Iran is the legal process through which a deceased person’s estate is distributed to their heirs. This process follows Islamic inheritance laws unless a valid will (wasiet) is present.
Islamic Law & Inheritance
Inheritance in Iran is governed by Islamic Sharia principles. Assets are divided among qualified heirs — including spouses, children, parents, and siblings — based on predetermined shares outlined in the law.
Will and Testament (Wasiet)
Iranian law allows for a will to be executed, which can modify the distribution of assets (up to one-third of the estate). A valid will helps simplify probate and reduce family conflict.
The Probate Process
The legal steps include:
Identifying heirs and legal documents
Assessing assets and debts
Filing a petition for inheritance verification (تصدیق انحصار وراثت)
Distributing assets according to Islamic law or will
Inheritance Disputes
Conflicts may arise over the validity of a will, identification of heirs, or division of assets. Our team offers expert representation in Iranian courts or via settlement strategies.
