Condițiile prevăzute de legea federală elvețiană în materia autentificării actelor pentru cauză de moarte
The conditions provided by the Swiss federal law regarding the authentication of acts for cause of death

Summary/Abstract: With an area almost 5 times smaller than that of Romania and a population of almost 9 million inhabitants, Switzerland is one of the richest and safest countries in the world. However, this stability is not seen in the legislative field, where each of the 26 cantons has its own laws and regulations. Nevertheless, there is a situation where the national law, applicable at federal level, imposes the one of the cantons to adopt a certain conduct. We will also analyze one of these situations in the following study, referring here to wills and succession pacts which, considering their importance in the civil circuit, must comply with a series of conditions in order to be considered valid. The study invites to a comparative reflection with the Romanian legislation, with the aim of analyzing, as all juristss do involuntarily, if others are better or if we can borrow something from the way the Swiss have chosen to regulate this matter. For the drafting of the study, both Swiss legal literature and the relevant legislation from the country of the cantons were used.
