Singapore Government guide to wills and estate planning
Official basics on what a will can do and assets that require other arrangements.

What this resource offers
LifeSG explains that a will can direct assets after death and name people to look after children or dependants and carry it out; some assets, including CPF savings, cannot be distributed by will. Start with the guide and an asset list, then seek suitable legal advice and confirm coordination with trust and nominations.
