Identification

Requirements & Useful Infomation

​

If a document is to be signed by you on behalf of a company, a partnership, a charity, club or other incorporated body, there are further requirements on which I may have to insist. Please be prepared for these and telephone with any point of difficulty before attending on the appointment.

​

In each case:

  1. Evidence of identity of the authorised signatory (as listed below).

  2. A copy of the current letterhead (showing the registered office if it is a company).

  3. A Letter of Authority, Minute, Resolution or Power of Attorney, authorising you to sign the document.

​

Additionally, companies: Certificate of Incorporation and of any Change of Name, a copy of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, Details of Directors and Secretaries. In all instances, I will be carrying out various company searches, which may have an effect on the level of fees charged.

​

Additionally, partnerships, clubs, etc.: A Partnership Agreement; or relevant Trust Deed; or Charter; or Constitution/Rules.

 

Notaries are required to keep evidence on their files of the identity and the address of all their clients before they undertake any services.

​

Each person whose signature they are to certify must provide one of the following original identification documents at the time of the appointment.

​

  • A valid passport

  • A valid driving licence (with photo card)

  • A valid armed forces pass (with photo and signature)

  • A current government or police issue certificate (with photo and signature)

  • A valid residence permit

 

If you do not have the above documents, you will have to ask the notary to advise you on how best to prove who you are.

In addition, the notary shall require proof of residence, which can be one of the following original documents:

​

  • Bank statement or letter from bank

  • Proof of postal address, ie Utility bill or council tax bill

  • (Note: Any items which are online printouts are not accepted)

  • Inland revenue tax demand or self-assessment statement

 

For corporate/business clients, notaries will (in addition to checking your personal identity) need to establish that the company or organisation which you represent actually exists and in many cases that you are authorised to represent that company or organisation. In the case of companies or organisations based in the United Kingdom, the notary will generally conduct his own checks to satisfy himself that the company or organisation exists. In some cases (particularly for companies or organisations established overseas) the notary public may ask you to produce certain documents. These might include:

​

  • Certificate of incorporation

  • Extract from the company register

  • Certificate of Good Standing

  • Latest report and audited accounts

  • Up to date certified copy of partnership agreement

  • Evidence of being regulated by a regulatory body such as the Financial Services Authority or The Law Society.

 

​If the notary has to certify your authority to represent a company or organisation, additional documentation will be requested, for example:-

​​

  • Constitutional documents (e.g. memorandum and articles of association)

  • Power of Attorney

  • Board Resolutions

  • Authorised signatory authority 

​​

Your notary will be happy to advise exactly what will be required in any particular case.  Additional information may be required when we are acting for business clients. This is to ensure that a company check can be performed.
