On September 16, 2026, a substantial amendment to Greek inheritance law took effect. The reform changes more than 130 articles of the inheritance law, abolishes 28 articles, and adds many new ones. The report and the explanatory memorandum attached to the amendment, Law 5303/2026, explain the reasons for the reform. These include changes in family structures and forms of property, as well as practical difficulties in implementing some former provisions of the law.The law updates the Greek Civil Code, with the most significant changes focusing on inheritance contracts (arts. 1798–1807, 1838–1843), personal liability for the deceased’s debts (arts. 1892–1903), intestate succession (arts. 1808–1819), and the reserved portion (arts. 1830–1837)....
