Letters of administration

There is no equivalent of letters of administration in Germany as the intestate heirs (gesetzliche Erben) administer the estate themselves. The power of the intestate heirs to administer the estate (Nachlass) is proven by a certificate of inheritance (Erbschein).

The German equivalent of letters testamentary is the German certificate of executorship (Testamentsvollstreckerzeugnis)
