What do notaries public do?

Notaries certify the execution in their presence of a deed, a contract or other writing. They can also verify some act or thing done in their presence. Among the things they do are:

  • Authenticating documents
  • Witnessing and proving signatures to documents
  • Administering oaths
  • Taking affidavits (other than for the courts in Ireland)
  • Drawing up Powers of Attorney and other legal documents customarily prepared by notaries public
  • When am I likely to need the services of a notary public?

You are most likely to require a notary where you have to send papers or documents to a foreign jurisdiction. You may require the services of a notary in relation to:

  • Foreign adoption papers
  • Affidavits for use in foreign courts
  • Copies of State documents for use abroad
  • International contracts
  • Powers of Attorney

What to bring...

If you are looking to get a document signed you must bring the following items along with you. Note also that if your document is an Affidavit / Statutory Declaration then we must see you signing in person so you must be present, as opposed to sending in a friend, colleague or third party.

  • Your Passport or EU Photo ID

Affidavits / Statutory Declarations / Having signature witnessed

  • Your Documents

Please bring the entire document, not just signatute page. Your Affidavit / Statutory Declaration might refer to Exhibit(s), and if so they must also be signed at the same time.

 

"I found Paul to be very professional and his fees very reasonable on both occasions we made use of his services. We didn't know how to proceed with all the documents and before we met him the first time he explained what they were about and how to proceed. We then visited him in Gorey and he got it sorted out very quickly for us. We highly recommend Paul and his service''
