Q: A very important issue on coming to live in France permanently, is how to organise oneself when a death occurs here. It is our understanding that relatives who will inherit the property


of the deceased must present themselves to a notaire almost immediately after a death. Is this correct?


A: Even though it is something we prefer to avoid thinking about, knowing what you need to do after a death (un décès) can help you to minimise your stress at this difficult time.


 THE first thing that is required is for a doctor to make a constat de décès - to legally state that the person has died. The doctor will provide a death certificate, apart from in the


event of a violent death such as one from an accident or a suicide. Violent deaths must be notified to the police or gendarmerie, who then provide a death certificate.
