Summary/Abstract: Handwritten will in Italian law is regulated by the provisions of the Italian Civil Code. In this paper, the author tried to present in a precise and clear manner the solutions provided by the Italian Civil Code in view of this kind of will, and to make readers aware of some scientific and practical opinions on this legal institute. The paper offers, among othersestament that was entirely handwritten and signed by the test, the following conclusions: A holographic will is a will and tator. A holographic Will is one that is written by hand, not typed or created on a computer or word processor. While the holographic (or handwritten) will is recognized under Italian and Serbian law, there are several significant risks associated with the holographic will. These risks are form flaws, ambiguous language, and burdensome probate. The Author is trying to give explanations about norms of Italian Code Civil and about some opinions expressed in doctrine and by case law through comparison with Serbian law.
