The rules of succession relating to BVI assets are governed by BVI law, irrespective of the domicile of the owner. A BVI Grant of Representation is therefore a relevant consideration whenever an owner of BVI assets passes away.

We can assist with the following:

• Drafting a valid BVI will
• Preparing and submitting applications for Grants of Probate and Letters of Administration
• Preparing and submitting applications to reseal a foreign Grant of Representation
• Advising on effective succession planning strategies
