Browse the storeWho it is for
Anyone signing a will in New Mexico, and the family member, friend or office helping set up the signing. Who can make a will, per the official page: 18 or older (or an emancipated minor), of sound mind.
Not the right fit if
The person signing isn't in New Mexico, you still need the will written (that's a lawyer's job), or someone may contest it. Not a will form or a legal service.
Why it is different
- Built only from our New Mexico will signing data file, checked November 2026 against NMSA 1978 Chapter 45, Uniform Probate Code, unannotated (New Mexico Compilation Commission, NMOneSource); Nolo (secondary source): How to Make a Will in New Mexico (Nolo, updated August 2025).
- All 7 New Mexico facts are confirmed: on an official page, or where none could be read, on a vetted secondary source marked as such.

What is inside
- Start here. The 7 confirmed New Mexico facts at a glance.
- New Mexico signing-day checklist. Bring 2 witnesses. The rule: At least two witnesses, who sign in the presence of the testator and of each other. Pick witnesses who get nothing under the will and aren't married to someone who does. Have a notary or another officer who can administer oaths there for the self-proving affidavit. The statute names that officer rather than notaries by name. Allowed. The testator's acknowledgment and the witnesses' affidavits are each made before an officer authorized to administer oaths. The rule here: A will, or any part of it, isn't invalid because an interested witness signed it. The testator signs (or acknowledges the signature) while the witnesses watch, then each witness signs. Remote witnessing: Not provided for: no New Mexico law we found lets witnesses appear by video, and e-wills aren't authorized (Nolo's New Mexico page, updated August 2025).
- Witness information sheet. One block per New Mexico witness (2 required, plus a spare).
- Original-will storage and location record. Where the original is and who has copies. Handwritten wills in New Mexico: Not recognized: the probate code's definition of a will excludes a holographic will.
- New Mexico will signing tracker (Excel). Steps, ID, copies and review dates. Remote witnessing in New Mexico: Not provided for: no New Mexico law we found lets witnesses appear by video, and e-wills aren't authorized (Nolo's New Mexico page, updated August 2025). Electronic wills: Not authorized, per Nolo's New Mexico page (updated August 2025).
