which is valid under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act, the Uniform Gifts to
Minors Act, or a substantially similar act, of another state is governed by the
law of the designated state and may be executed and is enforceable in this
State if at the time of the transfer, the transferor, the minor, or the
custodian is a resident of the designated state or the custodial property is
located in the designated state. [L 1985, c 91, pt of §1]
