A probate is a combination of all the assets and liabilities of the deceased. It's also the first step you need to do when someone passes away.

Any debts and funeral expenses must be paid before the bereaved possessions can be shifted. You as an estate co-owner have no personal responsibility over any debts the deceased has. Debts that cannot be paid by the estate are therefore most often written off. If the deceased was married or cohabiting, a division of property is usually made before the succession.

In the event of a death when a persons who by law or testament are heirs become estate owners. These people become representatives of the estate and need to agree together on how what is left should be distributed.
Within three months of the death, a probate ordinance must be held and then a probate must be made. The probate is a legal document and serves as a document of identification for the estate and shows who has the right to represent the estate.
Then you have one month to submit the probate to the tax office for registration.

An estate inventory may not be made on its own by the estate owner, but requires two outside executors with legal responsibility If assets and insurance do not cover the funeral costs, the probate can be replaced by an estate notification It happens that the deceased person lacks assets and insurance that covers funeral expenses and the like. In this case, the estate can turn to the social welfare office of the deceased person's municipality of residence. The social welfare office examines whether it is possible to make an estate notification.
If the deceased person was married or a registered partner, his or her share of the joint assets should be taken into account when calculating whether the estate notification may be relevant.
