Need a Statutory Declaration or Sworn Declaration for a government agency, application, institution, legal matter, or other official purpose? Royal Seal Notary Public provides commissioning services in Oshawa.

A Statutory Declaration is a formal written statement that you solemnly declare to be true before an authorized Commissioner for Taking Affidavits or Notary Public. Some organizations or clients may also refer to this generally as a “sworn declaration” or “solemn declaration.” The exact document required depends on the form or instructions provided by the organization requesting it.

Common situations include:

• Government applications
• Immigration or citizenship matters
• Insurance or financial requirements
• Employment or professional applications
• Name, identity, or personal-status declarations
• Property or administrative matters
• Other situations requiring a formal declaration

What to bring:

• Your completed declaration or required form
• Valid government-issued identification
• Any supporting documents requested by the receiving organization
• Any instructions, email, or checklist you received

Important:

• Do not sign the declaration before your appointment if your signature must be witnessed.
• You will make the declaration and sign it in the presence of the Commissioner or Notary Public.
• You are responsible for the information contained in your declaration.
• We do not independently verify the facts stated in the document.
• A “sworn declaration” may sometimes actually be an affidavit or another type of declaration, so bring the form or instructions if you are unsure.
• Requirements may vary depending on the government agency, institution, court, or organization receiving the document.

If you have been asked for a “Statutory Declaration,” “Sworn Declaration,” “Solemn Declaration,” or “Commissioned Declaration” and are unsure what is required, bring the instructions you received and we can help identify the commissioning or notarial service being requested.
