The grant of probate is a certificate provided by the Probate Registry of the Court which confirms that executors named on the grant have the authority to deal with the administration of the deceased’s estate.
When someone dies without leaving a valid Will a grant of letters of administration will need to be obtained to enable the beneficiaries of the estate to administer it. Under the Intestacy Rules the people entitled to take out the grant are the beneficiaries of the intestate estate. They are known as the administrators opposed to the executors. They will be unable to administer the estate without a grant of letters of administration.
