Can a legal heir succession certificate issued in Pakistan be used in the UAE?
My father passed away in Pakistan. He has a property and bank account in Dubai.
Can a legal heir succession certificate issued in Pakistan be used for accessing his assets?

Dear questioner,
You still need to approach the personal status court in Dubai for your father's assets in Dubai.
Kindly contact us directly for a detailed discussion.
If need be, kindly contact us via phone for a detailed discussion or write us an email for further assistance.

Dear Questioner,
Yes, the succession certificate issued by the courts in Pakistan is enforceable in UAE, but you need to follow the procedure for attestation of the succession certificate so that the certificate is enforceable in the UAE.
Please contact me via phone or write to me via email for detailed discussion and assistance.
Thanks!

Yes, it can be used but if you are Muslim and make it in the UAE court, it will be the same.
You need to apply in the personal status court with 2 witnesses.
You may contact me directly via phone or email for further consultation.

Yes, and you need to attest it in Pakistan, then in the UEA ministry of Foreign Affairs, and get it translated into Arabic.
I assume that there are many heirs in the succession certificate and, therefore, I recommend that one of the heirs gets POA from the rest authorizing him/her to act on their behalf.
POA, if it shall be issued in Pakistan, it should follow the same attestation process and it is better to get them both attested in one time to save time.
Any further quires on the above or the authorities should be given upon the POA, please contact me back.

Dear Client,
Good day!
We need a duly attested and legalized power of attorney and with that, we can submit it to the Court here and we can get an Inheritance Certificate.
After that, if you are a son, you have to show how many siblings are there and no objection from the remaining siblings to you and you can proceed accordingly.
For further assistance, please feel free to contact us at our phone or send us an email.
Thank you.
