Welfare Services
As Expats living in foreign countries there are certain services that become very costly compared to what the locals pay for them. As such we at Expat Support aim to develop a range of welfare support services for the Expat community in the years to come and are currently in the process of establishing a Waqf, also known as “hubous” or “mortmain property”. This is an inalienable charitable endowment under Islamic law that allows us to provide benefit and services to the Expat community.
Estate Planning
Expat Support can assist in the process of anticipating and arranging, during a person’s life, for the management and disposal of that person’s estate during the person’s life and after death, while minimizing gift, estate, generation skipping transfer, and income tax. Estate planning includes planning for incapacity as well as a process of reducing or eliminating uncertainties over the administration of a probate and maximizing the value of the estate by reducing taxes and other expenses. The ultimate goal of estate planning can be determined by the specific goals of the client, and may be as simple or complex as the client’s needs dictate.
