N.D. Cent. Code § 30.1-08.2-09
in effect30.1-08.2-09. (2-1010) International will information registration
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 any other individual identifying number established by law, address, and 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.
