Wyoming requires 2 witnesses present when the testator signs. A gift to a witness who is also a beneficiary can be voided or reduced in Wyoming, so the usual practice is disinterested witnesses.

No. Wyoming does not require notarization for a will to be valid. The notary's role is the self-proving affidavit, a notarized statement the testator and witnesses sign with the will so it enters probate without locating the witnesses; the form includes it.

Yes. Wyoming recognizes holographic (handwritten) wills when the material provisions are in the testator's handwriting. A holographic will typically needs no witnesses, but it is easier to challenge than a formally executed will.

No. A will directs who inherits, but the estate still passes through Wyoming probate, where the court validates the will and oversees the distribution. A simple estate typically takes 4 months to 6 months, with attorney fees set by statute as a percentage of the gross estate. In Wyoming, estates valued at $400,000 or less use the Affidavit for Distribution of Personal Property, 30 days after death, a court filing short of full probate. Assets held in a revocable living trust pass outside probate.

Wyoming allows remote online notarization (RON) for wills, so the self-proving affidavit can be notarized by video call with an approved online notary; the will itself is still signed and witnessed under Wyoming's execution rules.

Why Create a Will in Wyoming?

If you die without a will in Wyoming, state law determines who gets everything — and it may not match your wishes. Unmarried partners, stepchildren, and friends inherit nothing under intestacy. Who inherits in Wyoming without a will has the specifics.

A will can name guardians for minor children, specify who receives heirlooms and keepsakes, and appoint an executor to manage the estate.

Wyoming requires 2 witnesses at signing. The document carries a self-proving affidavit — a notarized statement that lets the will be admitted without the witnesses appearing in court.

Estates under $400,000 in Wyoming may qualify for simplified probate. A will directs who inherits, names guardians, and appoints an executor whatever the estate's size.
