This service is a complete service and includes:
Witnessing the execution of your document OR
Certifying a copy as a true copy;
Providing you with a Notarial Certificate;
Attending DFAT on your behalf to obtain an Apostille / Authentication (express service); and
Returning the completed document to you.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
This service is an end service unless your country also requires you to provide your document to your Embassy / Consulate after Authentication by DFAT.
A Notarial Certificate is issued with this service.
The DFAT lodgement fee of $105 is included in this service fee.
There will be no requirement for you to make an appointment with DFAT and wait for the Apostille / Authentication.
More Information on Notarial Certificates:
Please check if your country requires a Notarial Certificate. Some receiving authorities for international documents may be satisfied with a Notary Public’s stamp only rather than a fully legalized, sealed, and bound certificate, though this depends heavily on the destination country's requirements and the level of authentication required.
Key Distinctions:
Notarization (Needs Certificate): Involves witnessing a signature and verifying identity. A separate notarial certificate is typically prepared, signed, and sealed to the document if you require verification of your identity or signature. You will require a Notarial Certificate if you require an Apostille. An apostille validates the signature of the notary or the government official, ensuring the document is acceptable in other Hague Convention countries.
Certification (Stamp Only): Focuses on verifying that a copy of a document is accurate, complete, and true. It often does not require the same formal certificate, as the stamp on the document itself serves this purpose.
Disclaimer: Requirements for notarisation vary by jurisdiction. Always check with the receiving authority to determine if a stamp only is sufficient.
