Notarial - Statutory declarations (witnessing)

15 mins

More info A statutory declaration is a solemn declaration of fact or belief, and may generally be made in relation to any matter. An affidavit is used to give evidence in court proceedings, while a statutory declaration is used to give evidence in most other circumstances.

You are responsible for the content of the Statutory Declaration. If you are unsure of what you are required to write on the Statutory Declaration, you should contact the Authority who has requested that you sign one.

The Statutory Declaration must be signed in front of the Consular or Diplomatic Officer and cannot be witnessed by mail. It is not necessary to make an appointment and blank Statutory Declaration forms may be obtained at the Australian High Commission and Australian Consulate-General. You will be required to present current photo ID, showing both your current name and signature.

You are responsible for forwarding the Statutory Declaration onto the relevant Authority.

Notarial - Certificate of No Impediment (CNI) to marriage

30 mins

More info From 1 Feb 2012 a CNI can be issued if, on the basis of info supplied by the applicant, the couple meet the criteria which would render a marriage legal in Australia:
• the parties are not closely related
• they are both of marriageable age (18 yrs)
• neither is already married.

Information about marriage under Australian law is on the Attorney-General's Department's website:
http://www.ag.gov.au/familiesandmarriage/marriage/pages/gettingmarriedinaustralia.aspx

With the exception of the marriage of same-sex couples, if there is any doubt about whether the marriage will be recognised in Australia, the certificate should not be issued, and the matter should be referred to Consular Policy and Training Section of DFAT which will consult the Attorney-General's Department as necessary.
Parties to a marriage should consult a solicitor if unsure that their marriage will be recognised in Australia, including a doubt that an overseas divorce is recognised by Australian authorities. View less
