Sorry for your loss; closing a deceased person’s account usually starts by contacting the bank with a death certificate and proof of executor/authority. You may also be asked for ID documents, account details, and legal probate or succession papers depending on the case. The exact steps can vary based on the institution and local regulations, so each bank may have slightly different requirements. For general financial and property-related guidance, you can also check Property tax guide Hope this helps, and wishing you strength and patience during this process.
