Our service allows loved ones, executors, and legal representatives to verify whether a will has been registered and ensure nothing has been overlooked.
How It Works

01
Submit a Search
Families, executors, or authorized individuals can submit a secure online search request.
You will provide information about the deceased and your relationship to them so we can conduct a thorough search of the registry.
02
Search Certificate
Once your request has been processed, we issue a Search Certificate confirming that the registry was checked.
This certificate can provide important documentation for estate administration, demonstrating that reasonable efforts were made to locate a will.

Match
If the document is stored in a National Will Bank, you will be notified of a match right away. You'll be given instructions on how to arrange retrieval.
