There are four ways of inheritance: testamentary inheritance, statutory inheritance, bequest, and bequest maintenance agreement. The validity of a will depends on whether it has the effective elements of a will, namely:
1. A testator must have the capacity for rights and conduct;
2. The content of a will must reflect the true will of the testator;
3. The content of the will must comply with the provisions of our laws and policies;
4. A will must be in legal form.
Article 22 of the Inheritance Law stipulates that wills made by persons without or with limited capacity are invalid.
A will must express the true will of the testator, and a will made under duress or deception shall be invalid.
A forged will is void.
If a will is tampered with, the tampered contents shall be invalid.
