A notarial deed is a document prepared by a notary. The regulations specify which legal actions must be carried out in this specific form, such as real estate sale contracts, donations of real estate, powers of attorney for the sale/purchase of real estate, and many others.
A notarial deed must consist of strictly defined elements, which are listed in the Notarial Law. The notary guarantees the certainty of transactions, and the special form of the document prepared by the notary, which is the notarial deed, also aims to prevent disputes related to the legal action being performed.

What is a certificate of inheritance?
A certificate of inheritance is a document prepared by a notary, indicating who is the heir to the deceased. The notary prepares the certificate of inheritance indicating whether the inheritance was acquired under the law (statutory inheritance) or based on a will (e.g., notarial will, handwritten will). A registered certificate of inheritance has the effect of a final decision regarding the determination of inheritance.
Required information to prepare a certificate of inheritance
To prepare a certificate of inheritance, the notary should be provided with data concerning the deceased (first name, last name, PESEL, date of death, last place of residence) and data about the heirs (first name, last name, PESEL, place of residence, marital status).
Required documents
- for individuals: identity document (ID card or passport)
- death certificate of the deceased
- PESEL number of the deceased
- the deceased's will (if prepared)
- copies of civil status certificates of the heirs: short birth certificates, short marriage certificates (marriage certificate for the deceased’s spouse and for children who changed their surname after marriage).
Notification to the tax office
In the case of individuals who are exempt from inheritance and donation tax under Article 4a of the Inheritance and Donation Tax Act, the heir has 6 months from the date of registering the certificate of inheritance (form SD-Z2) to report the assets included in the inheritance to the tax office.
