A foreigner passed away outside of the UK but left a bank account inside of the UK, The money has to be passed to his/her spouse outside of the UK. What is the most economic way to do this? Does the deceased foreigner have to register the death in the UK authority etc. etc.?

You probably won't need to register the death with the government authorities.But I expect the bank will need to see at least a copy of the Death Certificate and probably also the foreign will.They may want the will to be resealed here (i.e officially authenticated) Depends on which foreign country we are talking about and what the deceased's domicile was.This is a specilaised area.Ask the bank first and then a specialist in foreign wills.
