What is the New Zealand Will Register®
The New Zealand Will Register® is the nation’s central register for Wills and Enduring Powers of Attorney. It provides secure storage for digital copies of these important documents and offers a reliable search service. This trusted resource is available to the public, legal professionals, law firms, government agencies, charities, and related organisations, making it easier to Register and Search for Wills and Enduring Powers of Attorney across New Zealand.
Mission and Vision for Certainty:
To allow people and their solicitors to store a certified copy of their Wills and a record of the location of the original Will, to enable the Will maker access to that certified copy as well as providing a public search facility to ascertain whether a person has made a Will or search for a missing Will. To be the first place of enquiry to securely store a certified copy your Will with the location of the original Will and the first place of enquiry to find out if a Will has been made.
