Obtaining an affidavit of marital status or residence
Are you planning to submit documents to an embassy or consulate and don't know how to confirm your marital status or address in the United Kingdom? You may need an affidavit — an official notarised statement that is legally binding and recognised by consular offices in various countries.
Consultant Law Firm provides professional services in preparing affidavits for citizens of any country who are in the United Kingdom and need to submit documents to foreign diplomatic missions.
What is an affidavit and when is it needed for the consulate?
An affidavit is a written certified statement by a person confirming a certain legal fact. Most often, consulates require:
- an affidavit of marital status — for registering a marriage abroad;
- an affidavit of residence in the United Kingdom — for submitting documents related to visas, inheritance, confirmation of residence, etc.
We help prepare affidavits that meet the requirements of a specific consulate, taking into account international law and the national regulations of the country to which you are applying.
