If the Red Book is in the parents' names, can the child inherit when one person has died?
Clause 16, Article 3 of the Land Law 2013 stipulates: The Certificate of land use rights, ownership of houses and other assets attached to land is the legal document by which the State acknowledges the lawful land use rights, house ownership, and ownership of other assets attached to land of the person holding land use rights, house ownership, and ownership of other assets attached to land.
According to Article 650 and Article 651 of the Civil Code 2015, inheritance by law applies in cases where there is no will.
The legal heirs are specified in the following order:
- The first line of heirs includes: spouse, biological parents, adoptive parents, biological children, and adopted children of the deceased;
- The second line of heirs includes: paternal grandparents, maternal grandparents, siblings of the deceased; biological grandchildren of the deceased where the deceased is the paternal or maternal grandparent;
- The third line of heirs includes: great-grandparents of the deceased; uncles, aunts of the deceased; biological grandchildren of the deceased where the deceased is the uncle, aunt; biological great-grandchildren of the deceased where the deceased is the great-grandparent.
Thus, when an individual is a joint owner named on the land use rights certificate, upon their death, their children will have the right to inherit that property if they do not leave a will for someone else.
Sincerely!
