swearing an oath

An oath is a solemn promise to tell the truth that is sworn to God and is a religious pledge.

An affirmation is a solemn and formal declaration that the statement to be made is true.

An affirmation and an oath are of equal value and have the same legal effect. The two versions exist to fit religious and secular individuals, and you may decide which one you are most comfortable with.

Swearing an oath or affirmation may be needed for the following:

  • Court documents such as a witness statement or divorce papers.
  • Change of name deed poll.
  • Statutory declarations.
  • Affidavits.
  • Powers of Attorney.
  • Appointing a deputy.
  • Police notice or penalty charge.
  • Pawn broker receipt and more.

Documents you will need to bring include:

  • ID such as your original passport or driving licence.
  • Proof of address such as a recent bank statement.

Kent Notaries can help you with this in a very quick turnover time. We also offer additional services if required.
