Guidance After Loss
What documents do I need to unlock full estate access?
EverVault uses a four-tier exposure model:
| Tier | Access | Required document |
|------|--------|-------------------|
| 1 | Death reported | Self-attestation by a trusted contact |
| 2 | Death certificate validated | Copy of the official death certificate |
| 3 | Executor validated | Letter of Executorship from the Master of the High Court |
| 4 | Full (reserved for extreme cases) | Additional verification by EverVault staff |
Documents can be uploaded from the Shared Vault screen. Validation is typically automated within minutes, but documents that need human review can take up to two business days.
