The Testament of Pope Paul VI is a document sealed with the Ring of the Fisherman of Pope Paul VI, similar to a civilian last will and testament. It was modeled after the papal testaments of Pope Paul VI's predecessors. Pope Paul VI's document in turn became the model used for the Testament of Pope John Paul II.

The document, written in Latin, contains an explanation of several decisions made by Pope Paul VI as to the disposal of his estate and personal belongings of value. It was read before the College of Cardinals by the Camerlengo and Dean of the College of Cardinals.
