Creating a Will is a crucial step in ensuring your assets are distributed according to your wishes after your death. Under Argentine law, you must follow specific procedures and formal requirements when making a valid Will. Understanding these requirements will help you make informed decisions about how to distribute your estate. Here’s a guide on how to create a Will in Argentina and the key considerations to keep in mind.
In Argentina, you have two main options for creating a Will: having it notarised by a Notary Public or writing it by hand.
In your Will, you can either name heirs or leave a specific legacy. Each option comes with its own legal implications.
To ensure that your Will is valid and that your wishes will be respected, it’s essential to comply with all the legal formalities required by Argentine law. This includes ensuring that the Will is correctly signed and witnessed, especially in the case of handwritten Wills.
For a Will before a Notary Public, the Notary will ensure that the document adheres to legal requirements. If you are writing a handwritten Will, it is essential to have it dated and signed clearly to avoid any issues with its validity.
