The DIFC Wills Service in short
- Who can use it: non-Muslims aged 18 or over. You do not need to live in the UAE.
- Language: English. You and your witnesses need a basic grasp of English, because translators are not accepted at the signing appointment.
- Signing: electronically, with two witnesses, at the DIFC Courts or by video call. It takes about 20 minutes.
- Fees: paid to the DIFC Courts, not to us. A single full will has been reported from AED 10,000 and mirror full wills from AED 15,000; check the DIFC Courts fee schedule for current amounts.
The five types of DIFC will
- Full Will: all your assets, and guardians for your children.
- Guardianship Will: guardians for your minor children only.
- Property Will: up to five UAE properties.
- Business Owners Will: up to five UAE company shareholdings.
- Financial Assets Will: up to ten UAE bank or brokerage accounts.
What we do
- Type your will in English from your instructions or your draft, laid out clearly and checked against your documents.
- Translate supporting documents into English: Arabic title deeds, trade licences, share certificates, and marriage or birth certificates.
- Translate your DIFC will into Arabic with a legal stamp, when a bank, a court or a government office asks for an Arabic copy.
- Translate a will from another language into English, so you can use it as the basis for your DIFC will.
We are a translation and typing office, not a law firm. The DIFC Courts recommend taking advice from a registered will draftsman, and the DIFC registers the will itself.
Price
Translation between Arabic and English starts from 50 AED per page, and other languages from 150 AED per page. Typing a will is quoted after we hear what you need. We confirm the full price before we start.
Common questions
Can a Muslim register a DIFC will?
No. The DIFC Wills Service is for non-Muslims. For wills that follow Shariah rules, see our wills typing page.
Do I need an Arabic translation of my DIFC will?
Not to register it. Clients ask us for one later, when an office that works in Arabic needs to read the will.
Is DIFC the only choice in Dubai?
No. You can also register through Dubai Courts, in Arabic, or with ADJD in Abu Dhabi.
