You don't need a witness to write a will. However, the validity of printing a will and then just signing it, indicating the year, month and date, is controversial, depending on the specific situation. If there is evidence to the contrary that the printed will is not what I really mean, it is likely to be considered invalid. If there are several wills, the notarized will is the most effective; If there are several notarized wills, the one with the last date is the most effective. It's best to write it yourself, with personal handwriting as evidence. It should be noted that the custom in our country emphasizes signature, but does not recognize the way of stamping and fingerprinting. If the testator has no signature, although the content of the will is true, it is invalid because of the lack of formal requirements. If there are some changes in the written will, it is suggested to sign and print the changes and indicate the date of the changes, but it is best to make a new will. The above is about "how to make a self-made will, and is the printed self-made will valid?" We've learned about making a will. Writing a self-made will, due to the lack of formal requirements, is very easy to be invalidated by the court. Therefore, it is best to consult a professional testator to help you make a legal and effective self-made will, avoid invalid or revocable situations, and let the testator arrange his own estate will be realized.
