Preparation of applications and powers of attorney for inheritance in Ukraine

The procedure for registering inheritance in Ukraine is often accompanied by legal difficulties, especially when the heir is abroad or unable to appear in person before a notary. In such cases, it is essential to correctly prepare an application for acceptance of inheritance and a power of attorney for inheritance proceedings. Legal support for this process allows you to avoid mistakes, missed deadlines and problems with the subsequent recognition of inheritance rights.

 

Application for acceptance of inheritance: legal significance and preparation procedure

Submitting an application to a notary is the first and mandatory step to acquiring the status of an heir. Missing the 6-month deadline may result in the loss of inheritance rights or require judicial renewal.
Consultant lawyers provide services for preparing an application for acceptance of inheritance, including:

  • Correct formulation of all mandatory elements of the application, such as the details of the heir, the testator, a description of the inherited property, and the grounds for inheritance;

  • Providing advice on the documents that need to be attached to the application, including proof of family relationship and title documents for the property;

  • Preparing a package of documents for submission through a trusted person or by mail in compliance with the requirements of Ukrainian legislation and notarial practice.

A correctly executed application allows you to avoid additional checks by a notary and ensures the continuity of the inheritance proceedings.

 

Power of attorney for inheritance matters: powers and requirements

If the heir cannot appear in person before a notary in Ukraine, the law provides for the possibility of appointing a representative through a notarised power of attorney. Such a document gives the right to act in the interests of the heir within the framework of the inheritance proceedings.
When preparing a power of attorney for the registration of inheritance, Consultant lawyers perform the following:

  • Legal assessment of the scope of powers required for a specific case: filing applications, obtaining a certificate of inheritance, representation in state bodies.

  • Drafting the text of the power of attorney, taking into account the formal requirements of the notary, with unique wording for inheritance cases.

  • Providing recommendations on certifying the power of attorney abroad, in particular with an apostille or consular legalisation, if necessary.

A correctly executed power of attorney allows all necessary legal actions to be carried out without the physical presence of the heir in Ukraine.

 

Comprehensive preparation of documents for inheritance proceedings

An inheritance case is a process that includes not only applications and powers of attorney, but also a whole package of accompanying documents confirming rights, property ownership, and inheritance status.
Consultant's comprehensive document preparation service includes:

  1. Conducting a legal audit of documents provided by the client, identifying missing or incorrectly executed certificates, attestations, and extracts.

  2. Preparing a package of applications, powers of attorney, and petitions that may be required when submitting documents to a notary or to a court in the event of a dispute.

  3. Assistance in collecting additional documents, such as certificates from the housing office, property appraisals, extracts from state registers, and requesting documents from archives.

Having a complete set of properly executed documents significantly increases the chances of quickly and smoothly obtaining a certificate of inheritance.

Frequently asked questions about preparing applications and powers of attorney for inheritance cases in Ukraine

Question

Can I apply for inheritance through a representative?

Answer

Yes, this is permitted by law. To do this, you need to draw up a power of attorney for inheritance cases, which clearly spells out the representative's powers. The power of attorney must be notarised.

Question

Is it necessary to submit an application for inheritance in person?

Answer

No. If you are unable to come to Ukraine, the application can be submitted by post or through a trusted person. The main thing is to comply with the form of the application and the deadlines for its submission.

Question

What should I do if the deadline for submitting the application has been missed?

Answer

In this case, it is possible to renew the deadline through the court. Our lawyers will prepare a corresponding appeal with justification of valid reasons and represent your interests in court.

 

Conclusion

The formalisation of inheritance rights requires a balanced approach, legal literacy, and strict adherence to deadlines and requirements. Independent drafting of applications and powers of attorney often leads to errors that delay the process or create risks of property loss. By contacting Consultant, you receive not only documents, but also comprehensive legal support for the entire inheritance procedure — from consultation to representation at a notary or in court.
