FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How is inheritance divided in Saudi Arabia?

Under Islamic Sharia law, each category of heir receives a fixed share prescribed by the Quran and Sunnah. Sons receive double the share of daughters.

What is the Saudi Estates Platform?

An electronic Ministry of Justice platform allowing heirs to settle estates — list heirs, calculate shares, and register distribution — entirely online.

How do I get an official heirs listing?

Apply through Najiz. The process typically takes a few days when all required documents are submitted.

Can heirs agree on a different split?

Yes — heirs may agree on a different distribution by mutual consent, documented and registered through a notary.
