FAQ

Is a will the same as a ping on chi?
Yes. Ping on chi is the Cantonese term for a will; the legal document is a will.
Can I write a will myself?
A will is valid if it follows the Wills Ordinance: in writing, signed by you, and signed by two witnesses present at the same time. Home-made wills are frequently challenged when the wording is unclear or the signing formalities are missed.
Can a beneficiary witness the will?
No. Under the Ordinance, a gift to an attesting witness, or to that witness spouse, is void.
How much does a will cost in Hong Kong?
Online platforms typically start around HK$1,500. Solicitors quote by complexity; fees vary widely with assets, family situation and cross-border issues.
Does marriage revoke an existing will?
Generally yes. Marriage revokes a previous will unless the will was made in contemplation of that marriage.
Can a Hong Kong will cover overseas assets?
Not always. Overseas property is usually governed by the law of the place where it is located, so a separate will or local advice may be required.
