If you have family, pets, or prized possessions, making a will in Hong Kong is certainly something you should consider. Allowing you to declare how you\u2019d like your finances and dependents handled after life, wills provide you peace of mind, knowing that your loved ones will be supported and your wishes respected. They also remove uncertainty from major life changes such as marriage, parenting, accidents, or loss. First time that making a will crosses your mind? We\u2019re here with Phoenix Wills<\/a>, a leading specialist in will writing and estate planning services in the Asia Pacific region, to break things down to you in simple terms. It\u2019s time to check one more adulting task off your to-do list!<\/p>\n

Everything you need to know about making a will in Hong Kong<\/h2>\n

Do I really need a will?<\/h3>\n

Technically, you don\u2019t \u201cneed\u201d a will, but if you don\u2019t have one, you (or rather your loved ones) would have to make do with how the law determines who gets what, which may not be quite as you\u2019d expect! Many assume that everything would automatically pass to their spouse, but the reality is it\u2019s not quite that simple. In fact, if you don\u2019t have a will, your assets would usually be divided between your spouse and children, and sometimes your parents, siblings, grandparents, or even distant family. So, if you\u2019d like to decide who manages your estate after your passing, who inherits your assets, and most importantly, who looks after your children until they come of age, then yes, you really do need a will \u2013 having a solidly drafted, legally valid will in place is the only way to make sure that your wishes are met.<\/p>\n

Is there such a thing as being \u201ctoo young\u201d to make a will?<\/h3>\n

Anyone over 18 who owns anything or has a minor child should start thinking about having a will. You might think that you don\u2019t own much, especially if you don\u2019t own real estate, but the threshold under which your assets can be accessed without a lengthy court process is actually quite low \u2013 it\u2019s as little as HK$50,000 in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

If I own assets in multiple countries, do I need separate wills for each one?<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s a common misconception that you can have only one will \u2013 on the contrary, it\u2019s recommended that you have separate wills in place for each country where you have assets<\/strong> and, as a minimum, you should have a will for your \u201chome\u201d country and one for your country of residence, if not the same. You could have just one will covering assets in multiple countries, but some countries don\u2019t readily accept wills set up in other countries; even if they do, the one will can only be processed in one country at a time. This means that if you have assets in several countries, but only one will, you could be looking at years before the beneficiaries would gain access to their inheritance.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, if you have separate wills in each country where you have ties or assets, each will can be processed simultaneously in their local jurisdiction, and everything would be wrapped up much quicker. It\u2019s important that all your wills are drafted in a way that they work around one another<\/strong>. For instance, a later dated will automatically voids an earlier dated will, so it\u2019s crucial that you work with a will writer with experience in cross-border estate planning, rather than working with a local provider in each country.<\/p>\n

If my kids live abroad, what can I do in my will to help protect them?<\/h3>\n
\"making

No matter where your children live, if they\u2019re under 18, you need to appoint a guardian<\/strong> who can step in if both parents have passed away. This is even more important if you and your children live away from family. If the guardian doesn\u2019t live in the same country as your child, then you should also appoint someone locally to act as a temporary guardian, until the permanent guardian could fly in to collect the child. If your children live in another country to you, then you\u2019ll also need to consider whether there could be any tax implications<\/strong> for your children on their inheritance, and plan accordingly.<\/p>\n

What happens to my children if both my spouse and I pass away and we haven\u2019t legally appointed a guardian?<\/h3>\n

In this scenario, the children would become \u201cwards of state\u201d, meaning that the state would be responsible for them<\/strong>, which in turn means that the court would need to appoint a guardian for them on your behalf. As an immediate response, the children would be placed in care with family, if possible. Or, if there\u2019s no suitable family close by, then the children could end up in an orphanage or foster care temporarily.<\/p>\n

Next, the process of finding a suitable long-term guardian<\/strong> is initiated \u2013 and again, they may not be who you\u2019d think to be deemed suitable by the court. The first set of grandparents who step forward aren\u2019t necessarily granted care of the children, as the court needs to look at both sides of the family to verify that the appointed guardian is capable and suitable. Should the two sides start fighting over who should take the children, the process would be lengthened as the court would need to hear both parties \u2013 all the while, the children would be stuck in the foster care situation. Setting the seal on an up-to-date will<\/strong> is crucial to ensure that your children don\u2019t end up in state care, as well as to make money readily available to the guardians for their custody.<\/p>\n

In addition to a will, what other documents should I consider for full protection?<\/h3>\n
\"phoenix

For a holistic estate plan, there are other legal documents that should be considered, including Advance Medical Directives<\/strong> (or Living Wills) and Enduring Powers of Attorney<\/strong> (EPA). The former lists out your wishes for medical treatment if you\u2019re suffering from a terminal illness and no longer able to communicate, or if you\u2019re in a coma following an accident. The latter nominates someone to manage your finances for you if you\u2019re mentally incapacitated. These two documents cover during your lifetime, whereas the will comes into effect only after you\u2019ve passed away.<\/p>\n

If you have young children, you may also consider nominating a living guardian<\/strong>, who could step in if neither parent was able to care for the children, but at least one was still alive. This would typically be in an accident situation, where both parents were incapacitated, but covers any scenario where you\u2019re unable to look after your children temporarily. Finally, it\u2019s prudent to consider your financial estate plan<\/strong> while you\u2019re at it, especially if your estate could be liable to estate tax. This includes financial planning as well as having appropriate critical illness cover and life insurance.<\/p>\n
