Notary Public London

What Is A Notary?

An English notary public may be described as a specialist lawyer whose main business is to verify the proper execution of English documentation going abroad and, where necessary, to issue an appropriate certificate. That certificate, or in some cases the original document itself, will be signed by the notary and he will also attach a notarial seal of office which is personal to the notary and totally unique.

 

Who is our Notary Public?

Kuddus Ali was awarded the post graduate Diploma from the University of Cambridge and qualified as a Notary Public in 2008.

Since 2008, Kuddus has been representing several thousand individuals and companies who have required his services of the last 9 years.

 

Why Use a Notary Public Service

The primary work of a notary public is to prepare documents; to formally witness the execution of documents; to authenticate the contents of documents and to administer oaths and declarations. By this process the notary attempts to make the document acceptable to, and therefore receivable by, foreign jurisdictions.

By signing and sealing a document, a notary public verifies the authenticity of the facts set out in that document and, apart from legalisation at either The Foreign and Commonwealth Office or at a foreign embassy or consulate, no other formal requirements will be needed by the foreign jurisdiction in which the document is required.

Do I need legalisation for the country where my document is going to be used?

It all depends on the country in which you are going to use the document, for example, a Spanish Power of Attorney will always have to be legalised by the Foreign Office and no need for the same to be sent to Spanish embassy in the UK.
