Document background
An Inheritance Deed is a crucial legal instrument in Singapore's estate planning framework, used to formalize the transfer of assets from one generation to the next. The deed must conform to Singapore's strict legal requirements, including those set out in the Wills Act and related legislation. It typically includes detailed descriptions of assets, specific distribution instructions, and may incorporate trust arrangements. The Inheritance Deed serves as a binding legal document that ensures the testator's wishes are carried out effectively and provides clarity for beneficiaries and executors.
