In order to obtain a succession certificate, a petition must be filed with the District Judge, who has jurisdiction over the area where the deceased person ordinarily resided at the time of their death or where any part of their property may be found if they had no fixed place of residence. The petition should include the following information:

The time of death of the deceased.

The residence or details of the properties of the deceased are within the jurisdiction of the District Judge.

Details of the deceased's family or other close relatives.

The rights of the petitioner.

Confirmation that there are no impediments to the grant of the certificate.
