Notary Public
A Notary Public is a qualified lawyer and the Notarial profession is the oldest part of the legal profession in England and Wales. Notaries are primarily concerned with the authentication and certification of signatures, authority and capacity relating to documents for use abroad. The most common tasks include:
- Preparing and authenticating powers of attorney for use overseas;
- Dealing with purchase or sale of land and property abroad;
- Authenticating foreign wills and providing documents to deal with the administration of the estates of people who are abroad, or owning property abroad;
- Authenticating personal documents and information for immigration or emigration purposes, or to apply to marry or to work abroad, such as education or professional qualifications or declarations of freedom to marry; and
- Authenticating company and business documents and transactions or providing certificates as to the status of a company or the identity of its directors.
The public demand for the services of a Notary Public is growing as more and more individuals look to marry abroad, accept employment opportunities abroad and buy property in other countries.
Companies also regularly require the services of a Notary Public as they look to expand their business activities to other countries. The Seal and Signature of a Notary Public is recognised not only by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, various High Commissions and Embassies in England but throughout the world regardless of the legal systems adopted in various countries.
