Inheritance

National rules on inheritance vary considerably between Member States (as to, for example, who inherits, what the portions and reserved shares are, how the estate is to be administered, how wide the heirs' liability of debts is, etc.).

Heirs in a EU country can benefit from inheritance rights of another EU country when the rights are adapted to closely match the rights in their country of residence.
