Washington Unsecured Promissory Note Template
	Adobe PDF MS Word

The Washington Unsecured Promissory Note Template can be downloaded in .PDF or Word format. The template should only be used to create an unsecured note, not a secured one. The reason for this is that unsecured notes do not need the backing of collateral (whereas secured notes do have the need). The template can be filled out in a matter of minutes, and if the .PDF file is used it can even be filled out digitally.
