This guide explains the significance of notarisation and DIRCO Apostille services, the process involved, and the full range of solutions provided by Global Apostille.
What is Notarisation?
Notarisation is a legal procedure conducted by a licensed notary public, who formally witnesses signatures and verifies the authenticity of documents and the identity of signers. By notarising a document, a notary confirms that it is genuine, correctly signed, and free of alterations. For South Africans who need to present documents overseas, notarisation is often the first essential step to ensure that foreign authorities recognise the documents as legitimate.
Why is Notarisation Important?
Notarisation plays a critical role in preventing fraud and guaranteeing document integrity. When a document is notarised, it provides confidence to foreign authorities that the information is accurate, trustworthy, and legally binding.
