Frequently asked questions

What are your fees?
Our fees range from a nominal statutory charge of €10 when you need a simple affidavit or statutory declaration sworn for use before an Irish Court or registry, to several thousand Euros for large complex corporate transactions.

Our fees are calculated on the basis of the nature and number of documents and the time involved, together with a basic instruction fee and elements in respect of legalisation, translation, foreign languages and any other factors where these apply. We do not issue a sample price list as this could be very misleading: there are many different elements taken into consideration. However, we are very happy to give an estimate of our fees and the costs involved in advance of undertaking any work.

What types of identification are acceptable?
Following the enactment of the Criminal Justice (Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing) Act 2010 on 8 July 2010, notaries are now obliged to keep sufficient evidence on our files of the identity and the address of all our clients before we undertake any work.

From private individual clients, we therefore require one of the following original identification documents at the time of the appointment for each person whose signature we are certifying and for the person who is acting as our client:

• Current Passport
• Driving Licence (with photocard
• National identity card
• Other government issue ID (with photo and signature
