2025-02-25

As the inheritor of the estate, one has the right to renounce the inheritance, but the parties involved need to provide a declaration of renunciation of inheritance. If you are in Singapore but want to give up inheriting domestic property, the situation is even more complicated.

One Case

Mr. X is in Singapore and has a property that he can inherit after his parents passed away. He wishes to renounce his inheritance, but is unable to personally handle related matters in mainland China. Therefore, he needs to provide a declaration of renouncing his estate, which should be notarized and accompanied by additional certificates.

Please note that all procedures are carried out locally in Singapore, so the declaration of abandonment of inheritance issued is a Singaporean document. However, for use in mainland China, authentication is required.

Prepare Documents and Identification Documents

Prepare valid original documents - Declaration of Abandonment of Inheritance (can consult a lawyer or the recipient for specific templates) and legal and valid identification documents;

Notary Public in Singapore

The declaration of renouncing inheritance in Singapore needs to be submitted to a notary public in Singapore for notarization. A notary public will verify the authenticity and legality of the document, and affix an official seal and signature on the document to prove its authenticity.

Application for Apostille by the Singapore Academy of Law

After completing the notarization, the notarized documents need to be submitted to the Singapore Academy of Law to apply for an Apostille.
