Affidavits, Oaths and Statutory Declarations for England and Wales


Where I am asked to swear an affidavit or take a Statutory Declaration you need to be aware that a solicitor can deal with this and charge a prescribed statutory fee of £5 plus £2 for each exhibit. I only carry out this type of work in my capacity as a notary public and charge a normal notarial fee for an oath or declaration. Any re-drafting or additional work may be subject to my normal hourly rate. For documents for use outside England and Wales normal notary fees apply.
Welcome to the Norfolk Notary web site. As a Notary Public I can help you navigate the minefield which is a foreign county's legal system.

I deal with notarisation, legalisation by apostille (including the e-apostille) and can undertake or arrange translations. Please phone or email me with your notarial enquiry. I do not charge to look at your documents and give you my opinion on the notarial requirements and you can if you wish email me a document for my advice.

Notaries Public are the most qualified regulated legal professionals in England & Wales and are full insured for their work. I specialise in dealing with documents for use abroad and can advise on procedures and requirements in foreign jurisdictions and deal with foreign lawyers on your behalf.

Appointments are usually available at short notice. I am available 9 am to 5.30 pm Monday to Friday and out of hours by arrangement and can attend your home or business address if required (supplemental charge may apply). You must bring with you an orginal ID documents such as passport and a utility bill or driving licence to prove your address.

I am now registered with Companies House as a Verification Agent and can assist foreign companies to register to trade in the UK by verifying the beneficiat owners of the company. Please contact me for more information.
