Timing matters when it comes to probate in the UAE—and having a Will can make all the difference.

✅ With a Will

Probate is streamlined, usually wrapping up in 6–8 weeks (about 2 months). If the death certificate comes from outside the UAE, allow an extra month for attestations. The process is clear, predictable, and much less stressful for your loved ones.

⚠️ Without a Will

Things get complicated. Sharia law inheritance rules, identifying legal heirs, and family discussions can extend probate to 6 months or more. Without clear instructions, the risk of delays, extra costs, and disputes increases significantly.
