How signing works in Alaska
Signing your will
- Ask two witnesses to join you. Pick people who get nothing under your will.
- Sign your will while both witnesses watch. Tell them it is your will.
- Each witness signs while you watch.
- Keep the original somewhere safe.
Alaska does not allow electronic wills. You print your will and sign it in ink.
Remote online notarization where Alaska allows it, never for wills.
How to sign your healthcare directive
- Choose how you will sign your advance health care directive. You can use two witnesses or a notary in Alaska.
- If you use witnesses, pick two people who know you. Sign while both watch. Then each witness signs. Your agent cannot be a witness. Staff where you get health care cannot be witnesses. At least one witness must not be family. That person must also get nothing from you when you die.
- If you use a notary, sign in front of the notary in person.
- Keep the original somewhere safe. Share a copy with your doctor.
How to sign your financial power of attorney
- Choose how you will sign. You can meet a notary in person or online.
- Sign your power of attorney in front of the notary.
- For online signing, the notary will check who you are.
- Keep the original somewhere safe.
How to sign your revocable living trust
- Sign your trust in front of a notary.
- The notary stamps your signature.
- Keep the original somewhere safe.
We give you a printed signing checklist for each document.
