Must the entire genealogical records be supplied to the State Treasury in connection with making the contents of the will known? Does the State Treasury investigate whether the person drawing up the will has died without heirs?

The State Treasury will not examine genealogical records in matters related to wills. The notifier should determine who the content of the will should be made known to. A copy of the extract from the population register concerning the deceased as well as a copy of the extract from the population register concerning one of the heirs must be attached to the will sent to the State Treasury. The extracts must show that the deceased is dead and that the heir is living (copy of registration certificate, if the recipient is a community).
