Letter of Instruction
A letter of instruction is a personal document — not legally binding — that helps your executor and family understand your wishes and find important information after you die. It might include where your documents are, the names of your lawyer and accountant, your funeral preferences, and passwords to digital accounts. It can save your family months of searching.
In short
A letter of instruction guides your executor after you die — where things are, who to call, what you wanted. Not legally binding, but enormously helpful to the people managing your estate.
Also known as
Letter of last instruction
