Statutory declaration sworn online

The statutory declaration (solemn declaration) is the most common sworn document: you solemnly affirm that the stated facts are true. It is asked for by IRCC, Revenu Québec, the SAAQ, banks, universities, employers and insurers.

Is it valid?

Yes. Our commissioners are appointed by Québec's Ministère de la Justice under the Courts of Justice Act and listed in the public register of commissioners for oaths. The session is held by video, the declarant's identity is verified before and during the session, and the sealed document carries the commissioner's name and commission number, the date and a verification code.

A commissioner for oaths is not a notary: we do not notarize or apostille. For a document going abroad, check with the receiving authority.
