One of the important limitations that arise when appointing an heir - they can not be a minor, since he can not be considered legally legally enforceable until he reaches the age of eighteen. But there is a nuance - in this case you can appoint the administrator of the inheritance or guardian who will dispose of this property until the child reaches the age of majority. Most often such guardians are the parents or immediate relatives of the child, but in the case of their serious illness, deprivation of parental rights, imprisonment or other similar circumstances, the appointment of a guardian is performed by the relevant state authorities.

Another limitation, imposed on the will -when you designate an heir to an apartment, you can not bypass the rule of mandatory share and deprive children of the right of inheritance, seriously ill and disabled relatives or other dependents, registered in it or in your care. They are obliged by law to get their share in the inheritance, because they lose their livelihood. The list of heirs included in this category is detailed in the law and is interpreted unequivocally - no one except people from the categories described in the list can claim for an obligatory inheritance. There are restrictions that reduce the share of the obligatory heir, but they can be checked and established only in a judicial order: for example, if the inheritance is the instruments of labor that the heir always uses under a will for work, and the obligatory heir does not use at all. In this case, the court checks whether the violation of the heir's rights under the will entails the allocation of a share to the obligatory heir, establishes the financial position of the heir under the will and the obligatory heir and makes a decision on the basis of all the facts collected.
