If you are the Foreign Agency, Entity or Organisation (the “Third Party”) who has received our Notary Public’s certification (eg. certified true copy of document) from your client/applicant/person and wish to verify our certification and/or our Notary’s official appointment, please be informed that such certification / confirmation is subject to our fees. Fees quoted are subject to change without prior notice and may vary depending on the Third Party’s requirements.
Who Needs This
Occasionally, the recipient (the Third Party) of our legalised document wish to confirm our certification which we have provided to our client, and/or verify our Notary Public’s appointment.
For example, a Bank (Third Party) may be in receipt of a certified true copy of a certified true copy of its client’s Passport (certified true by our Notary Public), and sent a request for our confirmation. We reserve the right not to provide such service at our absolute discretion, even if payment is made to us (subject to refund less abortive fee, if any).

Why We Charge
We provide our Notarial Services to the person who requested for our service usually for a small prescribed fee (eg. S$50, S$80). If the Third Party requests request our Notary office for additional service, we will need to respond to you and check/verify our historical data, which require time, manpower resource and effort.
We reserve the right not to provide such service and have no obligation to respond to the Third Party.
Please do not pay any sum to us until we have agreed to provide such service.
How Do We Charge
Our estimate cost for each verification is S$50.00. Payment is required in advance before we respond to the requestor.
The estimated cost stated herein is per document / signature. For example, if you are verifying 2 certified copies of 2 documents, then the cost will be S$X multiply by 2.
