¿Qué es la legalización notarial?

La legalización notarial es la certificación oficial de un documento o declaración por un notario público reconocido. Dependiendo de la situación, puede incluir:

• Verificación de la autenticidad de una firma

• Presenciar la firma de documentos legales

• Certificación de copias auténticas de documentos originales

• Prestar juramento o afirmar una declaración jurada o una declaración legal

Common Notary Services We Offer

1. Affidavits and Statutory Declarations

Whether you're submitting a Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) application, supporting a refugee claim, or providing evidence for a visa or PR application, sworn affidavits may be required.

We help you:

• Draft customized and legally sound affidavits;

• Swear or affirm their truth before a licensed Notary;

• Ensure the affidavit meets IRCC or court formatting standards.

Examples:

• Affidavit of relationship or dependency

• Affidavit of financial support

• Affidavit explaining absence of documents or exceptional circumstances

2. Certified True Copies

Some applications—especially those for immigration, study permits, or citizenship—require certified copies of original documents, such as:

• Passports and national ID cards

• Marriage certificates

• Educational degrees and transcripts

• Police certificates

• Immigration documents (e.g., visas, PR cards)

We verify and certify copies as true and exact reproductions of the original, as required by Canadian and international authorities.

3. Invitation Letters and Sponsorship Support

Many visitor visa applications require a notarized invitation letter from someone residing in Canada. We can:

• Review and notarize your invitation letter;

• Assist with drafting it properly, with all required information;

• Swear a declaration of financial support if needed.

This is especially helpful in applications involving parents, siblings, or friends wishing to visit Canada.​

4. Consent to Travel for Minors

If a child is traveling abroad with one parent or without parents, a notarized consent letter is often mandatory. We prepare and notarize these letters quickly to avoid delays at borders or airports.

5. Letters of Explanation and Solemn Declarations

In immigration matters, you may be required to provide written explanations under oath—for example, to clarify:

• Past immigration history;

• Name discrepancies;

• Missing documents;

• Marital status;

• Residency history or travel gaps.

We help you draft clear, persuasive, and legally compliant declarations that support your file.
