Abstract

This study aims to analyze the status and form of testamentary succession, the requirements and limitations of its validity, and the legal consequences and legal protections for the parties involved based on the Burgerlijk Wetboek or the Civil Code. The study employs a normative legal method using both a statutory and a conceptual approach. The primary legal sources consist of provisions in the Civil Code, while secondary legal sources were obtained from relevant legal books and journals. Data were collected through a literature review and analyzed using a descriptive qualitative method. The results of the study indicate that testamentary succession grants the testator the freedom to determine the beneficiaries and the distribution of their estate through erfstelling or legaat. However, this freedom is not absolute, as it is limited by requirements regarding legal capacity, the formal requirements for a will, the testator’s free will, prohibitions against certain parties receiving benefits, and the protection of the heirs’ reserved share (legitieme portie). A will takes legal effect upon the testator’s death and may be amended or revoked while the testator is still alive. Thus, testamentary succession is a legal instrument that provides flexibility for the testator while ensuring legal certainty, fairness, and protection for heirs and beneficiaries.
