Making a will online: questions

Can I make a will online for free?

Yes. With OpenWill you can write your will online, edit it as often as you like and download a printable copy, all free.

Is an online will legally valid?

In most countries, including the UK, Nigeria and Ghana, a will must still be printed, signed in ink and witnessed. OpenWill helps you prepare it and checks your witnesses' ID; the signing happens on paper.

Does OpenWill work outside the UK?

Yes. OpenWill adapts its wording to your country, and our country guides explain the local rules. For complex estates or property in several countries, get a local lawyer to review it.

What if I have property in two countries?

Many people need a will in each country. See our diaspora guide for how to keep both in one place, with executors on both sides.
