According to the list of unclaimed estates held by the Treasury Solicitor, last updated on Wednesday, March 26, 2025, the UK authorities stated that the owners of the estates had died without anyone stepping forward to claim the properties.
The list provided detailed information, including the names of the deceased, their dates of birth and death, locations of death, marital status, and official reference numbers.
Under UK law, unclaimed estates are held by the Crown for a period of 30 years. If no legitimate heir comes forward within this time frame, the assets will become Crown property permanently.
