Testamentary succession / Inheritance

Post by polyester100 » Fri Oct 06, 2023 2:16 pm

Hello,

I have my own savings as well as property here, however, I am living alone in Finland.
I am not sure who to ask about this matter, but I am interested in creating a will to ensure that, in the unfortunate event of something happening to me, my family members living abroad (outside EU) can inherit my assets.

I would appreciate guidance on how to proceed with creating a will and where I can safely store it.

Thank you!

The easy route:
1. Pay a lawyer to draft it (they should also provide witnesses)
2. Pay a bank to store it
* Makes sure it gets connected to the estate through your bank account
