The executor of La Selva de TV3, Meritxell Gabarró, spoke about international inheritances, recommending that everyone without exception exercise professio iuris when granting a will, which involves choosing which law should govern our succession.

In summary:

•Catalans residing in Catalonia can only choose Catalan law.

•Catalans residing outside the Spanish State can choose Catalan law or the law of the State of their habitual residence.

MORAL OF THE STORY: If nothing is said, the law of the State of habitual residence will apply, based on the provisions of the European Succession Regulation 650/2012.

THEREFORE, MAKE A WILL WITH PROFESSIO IURIS!
