Quora Answer: Can a Will be Handwritten?

The following is my answer to a Quora question: “Can a last will and testament be handwritten?

That depends on where you are.  This can be very confusing in a place such as the US, since it varies from county to county, not just state to state.  There are parts of the world that do not allow handwritten wills.  The reason is because they may be difficult to interpret, when the handwriting is unclear.  There are other parts of the world, where there is no specific stipulation that the will must be typed out.  For example, Singapore admits the veracity of wills written by hand.
