To dispose of property in different countries by will.
It is common for a person to own property in different countries, so how to distribute the property behind him with a valid will is very important.
The validity of the will here considers:
1. Whether a person can make wills in different countries, with a will against property in a country. O
2. A man must make a will against property in all countries.
concept
A man may make different wills at different stages of his life. But a valid will is a person's last will, and the last will covers all previous wills. This is the most ideal way, the most rigorous way, the least ambiguous way.
difficulty
The problem is that different countries have different inheritance laws and property laws, and it is difficult for a will to fully apply to the laws of multiple countries. The terms in the will, if slightly conflict with the local law, may nullify the will in part or in whole.
common view
In response to this situation, the law system of contemporary countries suggests the establishment of a will in the country in which the property is located. The key is to make it clear in each will that it does not invalidate other wills established before or after in different countries. Although there was an international agreement on the uniform format of testament in 1973, the agreement has not been widely used and promoted because of the difference of the national law.
（分析研究经验做出结论） sum up
1. A person can make wills in different countries, with different will against property in different countries;
2. Each will must make it clear that the will not invalidate other wills established before or after that date in different countries.
