How long can the process of inheritance division last?

There are no clear deadlines for the division of inheritance, defined by legislation. There are general provisions:

• The heir under the will or by law has the right to accept the inheritance or not to accept it.

• An heir who lived permanently with the testator at the time of the opening of the inheritance is considered to have accepted the inheritance, if within six months after the death of the testator he has not declared his refusal to accept it.

• If several heirs accept the inheritance, such inheritance is subject to division.
