Our notary can assist you with not just notarising your documents, but also explaining the legalisation/apostille process and assisting you with that process if required.88-11 Sutphin Blvd. The apostille is a stamp and statement identifying the notary’s signature and is usually affixed to the back of the notary’s signed document. A large number of countries are signatories to a convention (commonly known as the ‘Hague Apostille Convention’) that removes the requirement of certification by a consulate/embassy of a foreign country before the document can be sent overseas, and that only requires an ‘apostille’ from DFAT before the document can be sent to the foreign country. Once it is certified by the consulate or embassy, the document is then sent overseas. Once DFAT legalises the document (by endorsing the document with its own seal and certificate) the document may then need to be certified at the consulate or embassy of the foreign country to which the documents is to be sent. In many cases a document which is to be sent to an overseas country will require the notary’s signature and seal to be ‘legalised’ (meaning certified as correct) by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Australia (DFAT). Legalisation of a notary’s signature and seal Notaries must also ensure that a person signing a document does not have any legal incapacity, such as a physical or mental illness, and that they understand the nature and the content of the documents that they are signing. A notary has to confirm the identity of a signatory by having them produce identity documents, such as driver’s licences and passport, and examining those identity documents. Notaries perform a wide range of functions, including authenticating official, government and personal documents and information for use overseas witnessing signatures of individuals to various documents and verifying their identity witnessing signatures to statutory declarations, affidavits, powers of attorney, contracts and other documents for use both in Australia and internationally witnessing documents and verifying status and transactions for companies, including certifying that a corporation is of good standing certifying copy documents preparing notes and bills of exchange preparing ships’ protests and dealing with documents for land, property and deceased estates overseas. The other key difference between justices of the peace and notaries is that justices of the peace are authorised to witness signatures and administer oaths only in Australia while a notary public is recognised in international jurisdictions. JP’s are not lawyers and a person who is a JP cannot work as a lawyer. Unlike notaries, who in Victoria must be senior practicing lawyers, justices of the peace are a group of volunteers who are appointed by the Victorian Governor and trained by the Victorian Department of Justice and the Royal Victorian Association of Honorary Justices. What is the difference between a notary public and a justice of the peace (JP)? They have broad powers to witness documents, administer oaths, certify copies of documents and other administrative functions, usually for production overseas. A notary public, public notary or notary describes the same person, namely a public officer (in Victoria they have to be a practicing solicitor with at least 5 years’ experience as a partner of a law firm) appointed for life by a State or Territory Supreme Court.
