@Topt, Thanks.

The most important thing in relation to organising Will(s) is the full details of the administrator (In Thailand ) or the executor (in the UK and I suspect other countries).

For example -if you live and die in Thailand and have assets in the UK -who advises the executor.?

 

Unless that person is alerted -then probate will not occur.

That person will also require a death certificate-with an official translation. who -in Thailand is going to organise that?

 

Plus the UK based executor must have sufficient funds to pay for a probate lawyer. Possibly this cost can be paid for from the estate of the deceased.

You need to leave instructions with a trusted person/persons about who to contact - and ideally in your personal papers.

The will template I used for the UK had it written in that the executor could pay for help required and that cost would come out of the estate.
