AdminA missing Will can cause unnecessary anguish, delays, and conflict among grieving families. Despite more Malaysians recognising the importance of writing a Will, many relatives are left unsure of whether a Will exists, or where it is kept, when a loved one dies.
To address this long-standing problem, Rockwills Corporation Sdn Bhd, Malaysia’s leading estate planning group, has launched the MyWill Registry—a free, secure online platform that allows Malaysians to confidentially register the location of their Will. The announcement comes as Rockwills celebrates its 30th anniversary in the industry.
“We’ve seen too many families experience hardships simply because a Will couldn’t be found,” said Azhar Iskandar Hew, Group CEO of Rockwills. “The MyWill Registry is our gift to the nation—free to everyone, regardless of who wrote your Will. It is a simple step to record the location of the Will with confidential access only to those you authorised.”
Accessible and inclusive for all Malaysians
Unlike traditional Will safekeeping services, the MyWill Registry is open to the public at no cost. It is designed to benefit not only Rockwills clients, but any Malaysian who has written a Will, no matter who helped draft it. The registry does not store the content of the Will—instead, it records the date the Will was made and its physical storage location, whether at home, with a lawyer, in a bank safe, or under Rockwills’ custody.
The platform allows individuals to designate authorised persons, typically family members or trusted representatives, who can access this information when needed. The system ensures strict confidentiality and is aimed at giving families peace of mind while reducing the risk of unnecessary disputes.
Key benefits include:
- Peace of mind knowing the Will can be found
- Free registration with no service fees
- Dispute prevention by making Will locations traceable
- Faster estate administration, minimising court delays
- A community-first approach, aligned with Rockwills’ CSR mission
Simplifying estate planning with digital tools
The MyWill Registry reflects Rockwills’ broader commitment to making estate planning more accessible and relevant in a digital age. As many families increasingly rely on online tools for financial and personal matters, this initiative bridges the gap between traditional legal processes and modern digital convenience.
Registration is straightforward:
- Visit mywillregistry.rockwills.com
- Set up a free account
- Enter the date and storage location of the Will
- Appoint trusted persons to be notified
- Save and update the information as needed
By simplifying this crucial step, Rockwills aims to increase the number of Wills that are not only written but also retrievable—ultimately helping families manage transitions with dignity and clarity.
A continuing legacy of empowerment
Founded in 1995, Rockwills has written over 300,000 Wills for Malaysians and continues to lead in estate planning and trust services. The MyWill Registry underscores the company’s evolution from a service provider to a socially responsible advocate for long-term family protection.
“We don’t just want Malaysians to write Wills—we want to ensure those Wills are found,” Azhar emphasised. “This registry is about honouring the effort people make when planning for their families, and making sure that effort isn’t lost.”
With the launch of the MyWill Registry, Rockwills not only strengthens its role in shaping responsible estate planning habits but also reaffirms its mission to support Malaysian families through meaningful, accessible public services.
