We will be leaving France in August as my husband is being transferred to the Philippines. we have been here for 5.5 years and we own an apartment which we will be renting out as it is very likely we will return in a few years. Now that we are in our 30s with 4 young children our minds have turned to making a will and we have fallen into doubt as to where to make one. As of 15 august we will no longer be residnet in France, so is there any validity to making a will over here, or, when we take up residence in the Philippines, should we make one there? We also have money in the UK, Switzerland, and US bank accounts (albeit small amounts). We know that property must be disposed of according to Frnch laws of inheritance regardless of where one is resident at the time of death, so if it is any help to answering the question, our apartment is owned 50/50 by the two of us, marriage regime separation de biens, with a clause tontine in the acte de vente. Many thanks!
