Online Commissioner of Oaths in Mississauga

Having a document sworn by a Commissioner of Oaths means that the Commissioner has verified the identity of the signatory and witnessed their oath or affirmation. This process confirms the authenticity of the document. To have a document sworn, you must appear before a Commissioner of Oaths who will witness you taking the oath or affirmation and then apply their official seal.

No, documents sworn or affirmed by a Commissioner of Oaths do not expire in Canada. As long as the Commissioner’s commission was valid at the time of the swearing, the document remains valid. However, the document itself may have an expiration date based on its type and the terms stated within it. Always review your documents carefully before having them sworn.
