We provide a full range of services to the Supreme Courts of all states throughout Australia. As many Singapore residents are also Australian citizens or permanent residents, many of our clients own property in both Singapore and Australia. When these clients pass away, we help the families to efficiently handle the legal documents to ensure a smooth and cost-effective probate process.<\/p><h2>Why Obtain a Grant of Probate and Reseal for Singapore and Australia?<\/h2><p>To handle probate matters effectively, you must first obtain a grant of probate in either Singapore or Australia. Then, you need to apply for a reseal of the probate grant in the other jurisdiction. This is because the original Will is deposited with the court where the grant of probate is issued. Consequently, the second jurisdiction will require a copy of the Will and a reseal from the jurisdiction where the Will was originally deposited.<\/p><h2>Should I Apply for Probate in Singapore or Australia First?<\/h2><p>Choosing whether to first apply for probate in Singapore or Australia depends on where the majority of the assets are located. For instance, if your deceased relative owned five properties in Singapore and only one in Australia, it would be prudent to obtain probate in Singapore before seeking a reseal of the Singapore probate in Australia. Legal fees in Singapore are generally higher than those in Australia, so cost should not be the deciding factor. Additionally, consider your familiarity with the probate application processes in both jurisdictions. Although Singapore and Australia both follow common law traditions, their probate procedures and court rules are quite distinct.<\/p><h2>When Is It Unnecessary to Apply for a Grant of Probate and Reseal?<\/h2><p>An alternative approach is to obtain a grant of probate in both Singapore and Australia, especially if the deceased did not leave a Will. This can help avoid potential issues with misunderstandings that might arise during the resealing process of a foreign probate grant. In such cases, you would apply for letters of administration (probate without a Will) in one jurisdiction and then either seek a reseal of those letters or apply for letters of administration in the other country.<\/p><h2>What Documents and Information Are Required for Resealing a Singapore Grant of Probate in Australia?<\/h2><p>To reseal a Singapore grant of probate in Australia, our probate lawyers need a certified copy of the Singapore grant of probate, an affidavit, and an inventory of assets and liabilities. This information will be collected once you engage our firm.<\/p><h2>How Long Does It Take to Obtain a Reseal of a Singapore Grant of Probate?<\/h2><p>The resealing process typically takes between 3 to 4 weeks due to a mandatory 14-day advertisement period.<\/p><h2>Why Choose Our Australian Lawyers for Resealing Your Singapore Probate?<\/h2><p>Our law firm boasts over three decades of experience in resealing Singapore grants of probate. We frequently handle Singaporean legal documents and are recognized for our expertise in immigration law. Additionally, our highly regarded international notary public provides notarization services for documents used in jurisdictions such as Singapore.<\/p><p>For more information, please contact our
