Document background
The Executor Letter of Authority is a crucial document in Singapore's probate process, required when an appointed executor needs to demonstrate their legal standing to act on behalf of a deceased person's estate. This document becomes necessary after obtaining the Grant of Probate and is commonly used when dealing with banks, government agencies, and other institutions that require formal proof of the executor's authority. It details the scope of powers granted to the executor and includes essential information about the deceased, the estate, and the court's authorization.
