Due to the different types of wills, the procedures for making wills are also slightly different. For example, a self written will can be signed and dated in person; A will written on behalf of the testator shall be witnessed by more than two witnesses, one of whom shall write on behalf of the testator, noting the next year, month and day, and shall be signed by the proxy, other witnesses and the testator. To notarize a will and apply for notarization of a will, you should apply in person to the notary office in the place where your household registration is located or the party concerned has difficulty moving, or you can ask the notary office to assign a notary to the testator's residence.
 The content of a will should include the following:
 （1） The name, sex, date of birth and address of the testator and the beneficiary of the will;
 （2） The relationship between the testator and the beneficiary;
 （3） The name, quantity and location of the property disposed of;
 （4） Decisions on the distribution of property and the handling of related affairs;
 （5） If there is an executor, the name, gender, date of birth and address of the executor shall also be indicated;
 （6） The date of making the will and the testator's signature or seal or fingerprinting.
 If you want to apply for a notarial will, you should provide the following materials to the notary office:
 1. Identification of the testator. Such as resident ID card, household register, etc.
 2. Proof of ownership of the property disposed of in the will. Such as house property certificate, bank passbook, etc.
