Wasiat, Probet, dan Pentadbiran Harta Pusaka di Malaysia

Undang-undang wasiat dan probet (wills and probate) mengawal penyediaan wasiat, pengesahan wasiat oleh mahkamah, dan pengagihan harta pusaka selepas kematian. Di Malaysia, proses ini bergantung kepada sama ada si mati meninggalkan wasiat atau tidak, dan sama ada si mati beragama Islam atau bukan Islam.

Bagi bukan Islam, Akta Probet dan Pentadbiran 1959 (Probate and Administration Act 1959) mengawal prosedur. Bagi orang Islam, pengagihan harta tertakluk kepada hukum faraid dan dikendalikan oleh Mahkamah Syariah.

Dengan Wasiat vs Tanpa Wasiat

Dengan wasiat (testate): Wasi (executor) yang dinamakan dalam wasiat memohon Geran Probet (Grant of Probate) di Mahkamah Tinggi. Harta diagihkan mengikut kehendak wasiat.

Tanpa wasiat (intestate): Waris perlu memohon Surat Kuasa Mentadbir (Letter of Administration) di Mahkamah Tinggi. Dua penjamin (sureties) atau bon insurans diperlukan. Harta diagihkan mengikut Akta Pembahagian 1958 (Distribution Act 1958):

Waris	Bahagian
Suami/isteri sahaja	100%
Suami/isteri + anak	1/3 pasangan, 2/3 anak
Suami/isteri + ibu bapa (tiada anak)	1/2 pasangan, 1/2 ibu bapa
Anak sahaja (tiada pasangan)	100% sama rata

Pejabat Pusaka Kecil

Bagi harta pusaka bernilai RM 600,000 ke bawah, permohonan dibuat di Pejabat Pusaka Kecil (Small Estate Distribution Office) - bukan Mahkamah Tinggi. Proses ini percuma dan lebih pantas, biasanya 3–6 bulan. Terpakai kepada orang Islam dan bukan Islam.

Soalan Lazim: Wasiat & Probet

What happens if someone dies without a will in Malaysia?

If a non-Muslim dies intestate (without a will), their estate is distributed according to the Distribution Act 1958. A family member must apply for a Letter of Administration from the High Court (estates above RM 600,000) or Pejabat Pusaka Kecil (estates RM 600,000 and below). Distribution follows a fixed formula: spouse, children, and parents receive predetermined shares. The process typically takes 6–18 months.

How much does a will cost in Malaysia?

A simple will costs RM 500–2,000 depending on complexity. More complex wills involving trusts or multiple properties cost RM 2,000–10,000. Applying for Grant of Probate costs RM 3,000–10,000 in legal fees plus court fees. Letter of Administration costs RM 3,000–15,000 (requires two sureties/bonds). Small estate applications at Pejabat Pusaka Kecil are free of charge.

What is the difference between Grant of Probate and Letter of Administration?

Grant of Probate is issued when the deceased left a valid will - the executor named in the will applies to the High Court. Letter of Administration is required when there is no will - a next-of-kin applies to the High Court and must provide two sureties (guarantors) or an insurance bond. Both authorise the applicant to manage and distribute the deceased's estate. For estates valued at RM 600,000 or below, application is made to Pejabat Pusaka Kecil instead.

What is Pejabat Pusaka Kecil?

Pejabat Pusaka Kecil (Small Estate Distribution Office) handles estates valued at RM 600,000 and below for both Muslim and non-Muslim deceased. The process is free and faster than High Court applications (typically 3–6 months). Applications are made under the Small Estates (Distribution) Act 1955. For Muslim estates, faraid distribution rules apply.
