New master's office digital reporting requirements for 2026
Regulatory Updates 1 min read
what changed
From 1 March 2026, all executor reporting to the Master's Office must be submitted through the new digital portal. Paper submissions will still be accepted during the transition period, but executors are encouraged to register for electronic access as soon as possible.
what this means for families
If your estate is being administered by a professional executor, they will handle the transition. If you are managing a smaller estate under Section 18(3), you may need to create an account on the Master's Office portal. The process is straightforward and free of charge.
LegacyCheck will continue to monitor estates regardless of the submission method used by the executor.
