An overview of inheritance law in Spain and how it differs from the UK.
Ben Johnson / Bright
The Spanish inheritance law is similar to the Napoleonic inheritance laws in France, with the emphasis on protecting the rights of the deceased’s direct descendents. The legal system and the way the taxes are calculated are very different from the British system. If you already own or are seeking to own a property in Spain, take the time to speak to a lawyer and a qualified financial advisor. This ensures that your assets will be in order, and the correct provisions have been made so that your inheritor(s) pass through the process of probate easily.
