The Executor Letter of Authority is a crucial document in Malaysian estate administration, required when an executor needs to prove their legal standing to act on behalf of a deceased person's estate. This document becomes necessary after a person's death when their will names an executor, or when the court appoints an executor to manage the estate. The letter explicitly outlines the executor's powers and responsibilities, providing legal authority to handle bank accounts, real estate, investments, and other assets located in Malaysia. It is issued by the High Court of Malaysia following an application process that verifies the executor's appointment and their right to act. The document is essential for dealing with various institutions and authorities, who will require it as proof of the executor's legal authority before allowing any transactions or transfers related to the deceased's assets.
