Why Filipinos need a will

Living in England or Wales with family and assets in the Philippines creates unique estate planning challenges that a standard will may not address.

Cross-border estate

You may have property, bank accounts, or investments in both the Philippines and England or Wales. A properly drafted will makes your wishes clear for assets here.

Family back home

If you have a spouse and children, English intestacy rules mean parents and siblings inherit nothing, regardless of where they live or how much you support them.

Cultural obligations

Many Filipinos send regular remittances to support extended family. Those payments stop when you die. A will is the only way to continue that support.

Legal clarity across borders

Philippine forced heirship rules differ significantly from English testamentary freedom. A properly drafted will avoids confusion between the two legal systems.

According to C-PAID (a contested wills service founded by GetWill's founder), contesting a will privately can cost tens of thousands of pounds.4Poorly worded clauses, missing signatures, invalid witnessing, and failures to make reasonable financial provision for loved ones under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975 are common causes. These are all risks that should be identified and managed during professional review.

In an Inheritance Act claim, the costs of a single one day interim hearing were about £74,000, against a claim for a £75,000 lump sum.5

Court guideline rates for a solicitor with over 8 years' experience are £288 to £579 an hour.6

11,328 caveats to stop a grant of probate were entered in England and Wales in 2025.7

What happens without a will?

Under English intestacy rules, your estate is distributed in a strict order. Extended family you support back home may receive nothing.

1

Spouse or civil partner

2

Children (or their descendants)

3

Parents

4

Siblings (or their descendants)

5

Extended family

If you are married with children, your parents and siblings inherit nothing under English intestacy rules. It does not matter where they live or how much you send them. A will is the only way to change this.

United Kingdom and Philippine flags side by side

“A will is the simplest thing you can do to protect the people you love, wherever they are in the world.”

Paul Wood FRSA, Founder of GetWill

Protect the family who depend on you back home.

A spouse and children inherit under English intestacy rules, but parents, siblings, and extended family do not, no matter how much you send home. A properly drafted will lets you name beneficiaries wherever they live and make sure the people who depend on you are provided for.
