Art. 91 Legge federale del 18 dicembre 1987 sul diritto internazionale privato (LDIP)
LDIP; Capitolo 6: Diritto successorio; II. Diritto applicabile; 2. Scelta
Art. 91 LDIP
Una persona può sottoporre la successione, per testamento o contratto successorio, al diritto di uno dei suoi Stati di origine. Deve averne la cittadinanza al momento in cui dispone o al momento della morte. Il cittadino svizzero non può derogare alle disposizioni del diritto svizzero sulla porzione disponibile.
Se un cittadino svizzero sottopone l’intera successione o parte di essa alla competenza svizzera (art. 87 cpv. 2), la successione è considerata sottoposta al diritto svizzero salvo disposizione contraria.
La scelta del diritto svizzero per parte della successione è ammessa soltanto se è effettuata per beni situati in Svizzera e se prevede anche l’assoggettamento degli stessi alla competenza svizzera o ha tale assoggettamento come conseguenza (art. 87 cpv. 2).
