In Oklahoma, a will does not require notarization. However, it is recommended to create a self-proving will, which includes a notarized affidavit signed by the testator and witnesses. This affidavit attests to the will's authenticity and proper execution under Oklahoma law. Having a self-proving will streamlines the probate process, as the court can accept the affidavit in place of in-person witness testimony.

In Oklahoma, a will must be signed by at least two competent witnesses. Witnesses must be at least 18 years old and of sound mind. There are no explicit restrictions regarding the relationship between the testator and witnesses; however, it is advisable to use disinterested witnesses (i.e., those who are not beneficiaries of the will) to minimize potential conflicts of interest and challenges to the will's validity.
