Question 8: Out-of-state Wills and Trusts?

Question 8: Out-of-state Wills and Trusts?

  • If I had a Will or Trust prepared in another state before I moved to Idaho, do I need to have those documents redone now that I live here? No.  Idaho will recognize the validity of any Will or Trust prepared anywhere in the country, even if they would not have complied with our laws had they been signed here.  On the other hand, if there are changes that you would like to make to such documents, those can typically be made by a short amendment without redrafting the entire document.
