How do I know if my will is registered?

To check if your will is registered, you can search the National Will Register, which holds records of wills stored by solicitors and individuals across the UK. A small fee may apply for a search. If you created your will through a solicitor, ask them directly whether it has been registered. Even if it’s not registered, as long as your executors know where to find the original, it can still be used. Registration simply makes it easier for your will to be located after your death.
