The Municipality provides Commissioner of Oaths services for a variety of documents such as Declaration of Vehicle Transfers as well as general affidavits. Here are some important things to note about these services:
- To have something commissioned, everyone who needs to sign the document must be present and have a valid photo ID.
- The Municipality does not provide Notary Public services.
- A Commissioner of Oaths is not the same as a Notary Public. If your document requires the signature of a Notary Public, you will need to contact a lawyer or a Notary Public.
- Appointments are strongly recommended to ensure a Commissioner of Oaths is available. To make an appointment please contact the Clerk
- The Commissioner is not responsible for the contents of the affidavit – that is the responsibility of the person whose signature is being commissioned. You must understand the details of what you are signing and their correctness.
The fee for this service is $20.
This service is offered at our Municipal Office.
