A DIFC Will is the strongest and most internationally recognised way for non-Muslims in the UAE to protect their assets, family, and estate under a common‑law framework.
VADA manages the full DIFC Will process from drafting to registration — ensuring compliance, accuracy, and complete peace of mind.
A DIFC Will is registered in the DIFC Wills Service Centre, operating under an international common‑law system separate from UAE Sharia-based inheritance laws. It allows you to:
– Decide who inherits your assets
– Appoint guardians for children
– Control distribution of UAE and global assets
– Protect family interests
– Avoid complex court procedures
Covers all assets + guardianship.
Appoints long-term and temporary guardians for children.
