A Probate Affidavit is an essential document in Hong Kong's estate administration process, required when applying for the authority to manage and distribute a deceased person's estate. This sworn statement must be filed with the Hong Kong High Court's Probate Registry and is governed by the Probate and Administration Ordinance (Cap. 10) and related regulations. The affidavit includes comprehensive information about the deceased, their assets and liabilities, beneficiaries, and the proposed administration of the estate. It serves as the primary evidentiary document that enables the court to verify the legitimacy of the probate application and ensure proper estate distribution. The document must be sworn before a Commissioner for Oaths and requires meticulous attention to detail as any errors or omissions can delay the probate process.
