What Is a Last Will and Testament?

Idaho defines a will as “a testamentary instrument and includes codicil and any testamentary instrument which merely appoints an executor or revokes or revises another will.” (§ 15-1-201(56))

Requirements

To execute a valid will, individuals must:

  • The testator must be mentally sound and at least eighteen (18) years old. (§ 15-2-501)
  • The will must be signed by two competent witnesses in the testator’s presence. (§ 15-2-502)
  • The will must be in writing to be valid. (§ 15-2-502)

Filing

Idaho does not mandate the filing of wills before death. Probate courts may offer safekeeping services for residents who wish to deposit their wills.
