Even if you have already made a Spanish Will in the past but due to recent changes in European laws up to as recently as 2016, it is recommended that you study the entitlement of your ‘will’ to safeguard that it confirm with which national laws you wish to apply the division of your estate. If this is not done then this will result in the Spanish law on the distribution of your estate overriding your intended beneficiaries and changing how your estate is distributed.

In most Wills it should specify that the testor/s making the new Will hereby agrees to cancel all previous wills made by them. It needs to specifically be stated that this excludes your Tenerife Will otherwise if you are drawing a new Will this would cancel your Spanish Will and a new one would have to be draw up once again for your Tenerife assests
In the event that you get married or divorced, the best course recommended is that you arrange new Wills in the country where you own property or have any asset
