Applicable-law context

  • pt: What are the recorded scope of Regulation (EU) No 650/2012, applicable-law connecting factors, choice-of-law conditions and transitional provisions for this country? — Recorded rules are available; their applicability to this case has not been established. Portugal is a participating Member State under Regulation (EU) No 650/2012. For successions of persons dying on or after 17 August 2015, a participating forum generally applies the law of the deceased’s habitual residence at death to the succession as a whole. Article 21(2) is exceptional: all the circumstances must clearly show that, at death, the deceased was manifestly more closely connected with another State. Article 22 permits a choice for the succession as a whole of the law of any State of nationality at choice or death, including where there are multiple nationalities and a non-EU State. The choice must be express in a declaration in the form of a disposition of property upon death or demonstrated by its terms; the chosen law governs the act’s substantive validity, and modification or revocation must meet the form requirements for modifying or revoking a disposition. Under Article 30, special restrictions for immovable property, enterprises or special asset categories on economic, family or social grounds apply under the law of their location only insofar as that law makes them applicable regardless of the law governing the succession. Article 34 permits third-State conflict rules to refer to the law of a participating State or another third State which would apply its own law; renvoi is excluded for Articles 21(2), 22, 27, 28(b) and 30. Article 35 permits refusal to apply a provision only where its application is manifestly incompatible with the forum’s public policy. Article 83(2) preserves a pre-17 August 2015 choice if it meets Chapter III or the conflict rules then in force in the State of habitual residence or any State of nationality of the deceased. Article 83(3) separately preserves the admissibility, substantive validity and form of an earlier disposition under Chapter III or the conflict rules in force when the disposition was made in the State of habitual residence, any State of nationality of the deceased, or the participating State whose authority deals with the succession. Under Article 83(4), an earlier disposition made in accordance with a law that could have been chosen under the Regulation deems that law chosen for the succession. — The disposition’s own formal and substantive validity require separate review. The law determined under Articles 21–22 governs, among other matters, beneficiaries’ shares, reserved shares and restoration or accounting for gifts when calculating shares (Article 23(2)); a choice is no promise of exemption from those rules. Tax, matrimonial property regimes, the nature of rights in rem and registration of rights are outside the Regulation. Written dispositions have alternative form connecting factors under Article 27, subject to Article 75(1): States party to the 1961 Hague Convention continue to apply it instead of Article 27 for wills and joint wills. Other conventions and the Regulation’s precedence between participating States are assessed under Article 75. This records the framework, not the law of a particular estate; habitual residence and nationalities, death and disposition dates, forum, assets, the particular legal system, testamentary wording, treaties, mandatory rules, procedure and registration remain unestablished. — «Article 1 Scope 1.   This Regulation shall apply to succession to the estates of deceased persons. It shall not apply to revenue, customs or administrative matters. 2.   The following shall be excluded from the scope of this Regulation: (a)  the status of natural persons, as well as family relationships and relationships deemed by the law applicable to such relationships to have comparable effects; (b)  the legal capacity of natural persons, without prejudice to point (c) of Article 23(2) and to Article 26; (c)  questions relating to the disappearance, absence or presumed death of a natural person; (d)  questions relating to matrimonial property regimes and property regimes of relationships deemed by the law applicable to such relationships to have comparable effects to marriage; (e)  maintenance obligations other than those arising by reason of death; (f)  the formal validity of dispositions of property upon death made orally; (g)  property rights, interests and assets created or transferred otherwise than by succession, for instance by way of gifts, joint ownership with a right of survivorship, pension plans, insurance contracts and arrangements of a similar nature, without prejudice to point (i) of Article 23(2); (h)  questions governed by the law of companies and other bodies, corporate or unincorporated, such as clauses in the memoranda of association and articles of association of companies and other bodies, corporate or unincorporated, which determine what will happen to the shares upon the death of the members; (i)  the dissolution, extinction and merger of companies and other bodies, corporate or unincorporated; (j)  the creation, administration and dissolution of trusts; (k)  the nature of rights in rem; and (l)  any recording in a register of rights in immovable or movable property, including the legal requirements for such recording, and the effects of recording or failing to record such rights in a register.» — Regulation (EU) 650/2012 — current consolidated English text — https://op.europa.eu/o/opportal-service/download-handler?identifier=06e4940f-eb4f-4e63-8e29-c3b9c0bd45af&format=xhtml&language=en&productionSystem=cellar&part= — Article 1; current-official-snapshot-utf8:1487:3717 — Source date: 2012-07-04 — Verified: 2026-10-17 — «Article 20 Universal application Any law specified by this Regulation shall be applied whether or not it is the law of a Member State.» — Regulation (EU) 650/2012 — current consolidated English text — https://op.europa.eu/o/opportal-service/download-handler?identifier=06e4940f-eb4f-4e63-8e29-c3b9c0bd45af&format=xhtml&language=en&productionSystem=cellar&part= — Article 20; current-official-snapshot-utf8:17707:17853 — Source date: 2012-07-04 — Verified: 2026-10-17 — «Article 21 General rule 1.   Unless otherwise provided for in this Regulation, the law applicable to the succession as a whole shall be the law of the State in which the deceased had his habitual residence at the time of death. 2.   Where, by way of exception, it is clear from all the circumstances of the case that, at the time of death, the deceased was manifestly more closely connected with a State other than the State whose law would be applicable under paragraph 1, the law applicable to the succession shall be the law of that other State.» — Regulation (EU) 650/2012 — current consolidated English text — https://op.europa.eu/o/opportal-service/download-handler?identifier=06e4940f-eb4f-4e63-8e29-c3b9c0bd45af&format=xhtml&language=en&productionSystem=cellar&part= — Article 21; current-official-snapshot-utf8:17863:18439 — Source date: 2012-07-04 — Verified: 2026-10-17 — «Article 22 Choice of law 1.   A person may choose as the law to govern his succession as a whole the law of the State whose nationality he possesses at the time of making the choice or at the time of death.

  • pt: What are the recorded scope, issuance and presentation conditions of the European Certificate of Succession for this country and document type? — Recorded rules are available; their applicability to this case has not been established. For Portugal, an ECS may be issued by a competent authority of a participating State for use in another participating State. The Regulation applies to successions of persons dying on or after 17 August 2015 (Article 83(1)); the death date in this case is unestablished. The Certificate is for heirs, legatees having direct rights, executors and estate administrators who need to invoke status, rights or powers in another participating State. It is issued in a participating State whose courts have jurisdiction under Articles 4, 7, 10 or 11, by a court or another nationally competent authority; the application and evidence are examined under Articles 65–66. The authority shall not issue it, in particular, where certified elements are challenged or it would conflict with a decision covering the same elements. Use is optional and it does not replace domestic documents; once issued for another participating State, it also has effects in the issuing State. In participating States Article 69 effects arise without special procedure: the certified elements and the stated status, rights or powers are presumed accurate. Its suitability for registration does not remove the Article 1(2)(k)–(l) exclusions for rights in rem and registers; Articles 71–73 govern correction, modification, withdrawal, challenges and suspension of effects. The original remains with the issuing authority; a certified copy is normally valid for six months with an expiry date stated on it. In an exceptional, duly justified case its initial validity may be longer; after expiry, an extension of the copy’s validity or a new certified copy is needed for use of the Certificate. This is not a general expiration period for the Certificate itself. Within the Regulation’s route Article 74 waives legalisation and similar formalities for documents issued in a participating State in its context; it does not remove all documentary requirements or itself bind a nonparticipating country to accept such documents without legalisation. — Issuing and receiving authorities, document type, proceeding, entitlement, copy status, translation, asset registration and local requirements remain unestablished; a country flag cannot resolve them. — «Article 1 Scope 1.   This Regulation shall apply to succession to the estates of deceased persons. It shall not apply to revenue, customs or administrative matters. 2.   The following shall be excluded from the scope of this Regulation: (a)  the status of natural persons, as well as family relationships and relationships deemed by the law applicable to such relationships to have comparable effects; (b)  the legal capacity of natural persons, without prejudice to point (c) of Article 23(2) and to Article 26; (c)  questions relating to the disappearance, absence or presumed death of a natural person; (d)  questions relating to matrimonial property regimes and property regimes of relationships deemed by the law applicable to such relationships to have comparable effects to marriage; (e)  maintenance obligations other than those arising by reason of death; (f)  the formal validity of dispositions of property upon death made orally; (g)  property rights, interests and assets created or transferred otherwise than by succession, for instance by way of gifts, joint ownership with a right of survivorship, pension plans, insurance contracts and arrangements of a similar nature, without prejudice to point (i) of Article 23(2); (h)  questions governed by the law of companies and other bodies, corporate or unincorporated, such as clauses in the memoranda of association and articles of association of companies and other bodies, corporate or unincorporated, which determine what will happen to the shares upon the death of the members; (i)  the dissolution, extinction and merger of companies and other bodies, corporate or unincorporated; (j)  the creation, administration and dissolution of trusts; (k)  the nature of rights in rem; and (l)  any recording in a register of rights in immovable or movable property, including the legal requirements for such recording, and the effects of recording or failing to record such rights in a register.» — Regulation (EU) 650/2012 — current consolidated English text — https://op.europa.eu/o/opportal-service/download-handler?identifier=06e4940f-eb4f-4e63-8e29-c3b9c0bd45af&format=xhtml&language=en&productionSystem=cellar&part= — Article 1; current-official-snapshot-utf8:1487:3717 — Source date: 2012-07-04 — Verified: 2026-10-17 — «Article 62 Creation of a European Certificate of Succession 1.   This Regulation creates a European Certificate of Succession (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Certificate’) which shall be issued for use in another Member State and shall produce the effects listed in Article 69. 2.   The use of the Certificate shall not be mandatory. 3.   The Certificate shall not take the place of internal documents used for similar purposes in the Member States.

Russia: reviewed answers with sources

May a forced heir waive their share during the testator's lifetime

The reviewed answer is currently unavailable.

Who establishes the heirs' title: a notary, a court or an administrative authority

The reviewed answer is currently unavailable.

What is the general inheritance tax context in this jurisdiction?

Recorded rules are available; their applicability to this case has not been established.

Inheritance received from an individual is generally exempt from Russian personal income tax under Tax Code Article 217. The FNS separately identifies remuneration paid to heirs of authors of scientific, literary and artistic works and inventions as taxable income. From 2026, foreign-agent recipients lose the inheritance-income exemption. Notarial costs and other-structure consequences require separate review.

This is general source context. Estate assets, death date, decedent and heir status, kinship, reliefs, treaties and local rules require review; no personal tax is calculated here.
