Section 6389 Of Chapter 11. Uniform International Wills Act From California Probate Code >> Division 6. >> Part 1. >> Chapter 11.
6389
. The Secretary of State shall establish a registry system by
which authorized persons may register in a central information center
information regarding the execution of international wills, keeping
that information in strictest confidence until the death of the maker
and then making it available to any person desiring information
about any will who presents a death certificate or other satisfactory
evidence of the testator's death to the center. Information that may
be received, preserved in confidence until death, and reported as
indicated is limited to the name, social security or other individual
identifying number established by law, if any, address, date and
place of birth of the testator, and the intended place of deposit or
safekeeping of the instrument pending the death of the maker. The
Secretary of State, at the request of the authorized person, may
cause the information it receives about execution of any
international will to be transmitted to the registry system of
another jurisdiction as identified by the testator, if that other
system adheres to rules protecting the confidentiality of the
information similar to those established in this state.
