What Is a Probate Order?

A probate order is a legal document issued by the Israeli Registrar of Inheritance Affairs that confirms the validity of a will. It authorizes the distribution of the deceased’s estate according to the will. Without it, banks, land authorities, and other institutions will not release assets.

Who Can Apply?

Only a beneficiary named in the will can file the petition.
If represented by an attorney, the application must be submitted digitally.
Applicants from abroad are fully supported remotely.

Death certificate (Israeli or verified foreign)
Death certificates of deceased beneficiaries (if applicable)
Proof of notice to all beneficiaries (registered mail or legal affidavit)
Power of attorney (if applicable)

How to Submit the Petition

The petition can be submitted online or manually. Online submission is quicker and includes a reduced fee. The original will must be delivered to the Registrar’s office within 7 days of submission.
