Resealing UK Probate In New Zealand
If you are administering an estate that includes assets in New Zealand, you may need to have the English Grant of Probate resealed by the New Zealand Courts before these assets. The Colonial Probates Act of 1892 permits the resealing of British Letters of Administration or Grants of Probate in New Zealand. This is easier than making new applications for the Grant of Probate in New Zealand.
What is the Probate Process in New Zealand?
A resealed Grant is legally required to deal with assets in New Zealand. That said, institutions holding very low-value assets may sometimes release them without a full reseal, so in this circumstance, it is not compulsory. However, a resealed Grant (or a fresh grant of probate) is always mandatory for high-value assets or any immovable property (real estate) in New Zealand.
