Fast, Reliable Notary Services in Toronto

JAB Legal Services Professional Corporation offers Notary Public and Commissioner of Oaths services for individuals and businesses in Toronto and across the GTA. Services are available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.

What is a Notary Public?

A Notary Public is a provincially appointed official authorized to:

• Certify true copies of original documents
• Administer oaths and affirmations
• Witness and authenticate signatures on documents intended for use in Ontario and abroad
• Notarize documents for international use — including apostille-ready notarizations
• Prepare notarial certificates

What is a Commissioner of Oaths?

A Commissioner of Oaths is authorized to:

• Administer oaths and affirmations for affidavits
• Commission statutory declarations
• Witness signatures on sworn documents

Affidavits, statutory declarations, and other sworn documents for use in Ontario courts and tribunals typically require a Commissioner of Oaths — not a Notary Public. JAB Legal provides both.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a Notary or a Commissioner of Oaths?

For documents used within Ontario (affidavits, statutory declarations for court), a Commissioner of Oaths is typically sufficient. For documents being sent abroad or required by a foreign government or institution, a Notary Public is usually required. JAB Legal will advise you on which applies to your situation.
