Register a DIFC Will to protect your Free Zone and RAKICC company shares.
The DIFC Wills Service (the ‘Wills Service’) provides an online facility that enables eligible persons to complete and submit for registration a DIFC Will which is specific to their free zone and RAK International Corporate Centre (‘RAKICC’) registered companies.
This ‘Free Zone Company Will’ can encompass up to 5 separate shareholdings in any free zone or RAKICC company situated in the Emirate of Dubai or Ras Al Khaimah. The free zone in which your shares are held must be established in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in accordance with UAE Federal Law and can include any RAKICC registered company shares that you own.
The pre-registration checks for a Free Zone Company Will can be carried out by appointment in person with the Will Service or via the Virtual Registry.
To commence the preparation of your Free Zone Company Will please press the Get Started button below and you will be re-directed to the Free Zone Company Will Portal where you will gain access to our online Free Zone Company Will template and comprehensive explanatory notes.
If using the Virtual Registry, you are encouraged to verify your identification at an overseas identity verification office operated by VFS Global.
If you are not married, you should select the Single DIFC Will option whereas if you are married and both you and your wife/husband wish to register a DIFC Will at the same time, then you should select the Mirror DIFC Will option (giving an overall net reduction in registration fees).

Your DIFC Will is an extremely important document and you are strongly advised to consider taking legal advice in its preparation. The Rules set down certain minimum requirements that must be met for a Will to be registerable and if these are not met, your Will would be unenforceable. To help you find a suitable lawyer, the Wills Service publishes a list of legal practitioners that have met certain minimum standards in relation to their knowledge of the Rules and in relation to drafting DIFC Wills. Click here to access this list of approved draftsmen.
