For NRI property inheritance in India, NRIs need several key legal documents to ensure a smooth and compliant process. Here’s a comprehensive list: 

• Will: If the deceased left a will, it is the primary document establishing the NRI’s right to the property.
• Death Certificate: This document is crucial for initiating any inheritance claims and legal proceedings. It officially confirms the death of the property owner.
• Legal Heir Certificate: This certificate is issued by the competent authority and verifies the legal heirs of the deceased. It is necessary to establish the legal right to the property.
• Succession Certificate: A succession certificate is issued by a civil court which is required to transfer the property to the legal heirs.
• No Objection Certificate (NOC): If there are multiple heirs, a NOC from the other heirs is necessary to avoid disputes and facilitate the smooth transfer of property.
• Title Deed: The original title deed of the property is required to confirm ownership and initiate the mutation process.
• Identification Documents: Valid identification documents like the NRI’s passport and PAN card are essential for various legal and financial transactions.
• Tax Receipts: Property tax receipts serve as proof of ownership and help address any outstanding dues related to the property.
