Fluvanna County Clerk of the Circuit Court Guide

At qualification the Clerk collects a Virginia state probate tax of about 10 cents per $100 of estate value (estates of $15,000 or less are exempt) (Va. Code 58.1-1712), an optional local probate tax of up to one-third of the state probate tax amount, plus clerk qualification and recording fees. The Fluvanna County Clerk's probate information confirms a state probate tax of $.10 per $100 of probate-asset value, a county probate tax of one-third of the state probate tax, and a maximum Clerk's qualification fee of $30. The Commissioner of Accounts charges separate fees for reviewing the inventory and the accounts under the statewide Uniform Fee Schedule. Exact current local probate tax, qualification, recording, and Commissioner fee amounts were not fully captured in this pass - verify current local amounts with Fluvanna Circuit Court and the Fluvanna Commissioner of Accounts before relying on a figure.
