Types of wills generally include:
nuncupative (non-culpatory) - oral or dictated; often limited to sailors or military personnel
holographic- written in the hand of the testator; in many jurisdictions, the signature and the material terms of the holographic will must be in the handwriting of the testator.
self-proved- in solemn form with affidavits of subscribing witnesses to avoid probate
notarial - will in public form and prepared by a civil-law notary (civil-law jurisdictions and Louisiana, United States)
mystic- sealed until death
serviceman?s will - will of person in active-duty military service and usually lacking certain formalities, particularly under English law
reciprocal/mirror/mutual/husband and wife wills - wills made by two or more parties (typically spouses) that make similar or identical provisions in favor of each other
unsolemn will - will in which the executor is unnamed
will in solemn form - signed by testator and witnesses
