Notary Public Certification
Documents created or signed in the UK for use abroad often require certification by an English Notary Public. Requirements vary by country, and we provide expert guidance to ensure your documents meet international standards. We also advise if Foreign Office legalisation or consular legalisation is needed.
Witnessing & authenticating signatures
We witness signatures on legal documents, verifying identities with passports or other identification. All notarial actions are documented on the original document or an attached notarial certificate.
Affidavits & Oaths & Declarations
We are fully authorised to administer Oaths, Affidavits, and Statutory Declarations under the Statutory Declarations Act 1835 and the Court and Legal Services Act 1990. Our team prepares and notarises these documents efficiently.

We certify copies of original documents, ensuring authenticity and compliance with specific jurisdictional requirements. Please note that UK Crown Copyright-protected documents (e.g., birth or marriage certificates) cannot be certified as copies.
