There are some differences between the wills handled by the Chinese Testament Library and the Notary Office. First, the wills handled by the Chinese Testament Library are self-written wills or agency wills, plus the form of witnesses, while the notary office handles notarized wills. Both of them are legal and valid wills, but the notarized will handled by the notary office is notarized. In China's current inheritance law, notarized wills have the strongest effect.
However, for the custody of wills, the notary office will only keep notarized files, not keep them; The Chinese Testament Repository keeps wills, and the parties can set conditions for inquiring and extracting wills, and can entrust follow-up services such as reading wills and mediation.
