MyNotary Magazine
These ‘features’ pages serve to provide information and stories that may be of interest to clients using the services of a Notary Public.
The most common document the notary deals with is a Power of Attorney, closely followed by making certified copies of various certificates. However that is by no means the whole story…

Specialist services
Some MyNotary notaries have (or access to) particular expertise in a variety of subjects; via the network this information is shared. Here at MyNotary.Biz, we focus on matters that at some stage involve documentation that needs to be notarised.
One such topic is the adoption of children from overseas. The MyNotary Network is able to call upon the personal experience of lawyer Mrs Pratibha Patel, who has herself adopted children from India. More information

Police Certificates
We are often asked about Police Certificates, when people want to prove that they do not have a criminal record. If you require a police certificate for the purposes of applications for emigration, visa or residency in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and United States of America, we can certainly help you.
Proof of Life
A seemingly unusual request is for the notary to tell you that you are alive! You probably already know that but the organisation paying your overseas pension may not believe you. They need to prove you are alive – presumably they have been caught out by fraudulent claims where relatives continue to claim long after the pensioner has died.

Have you made a Will?
Don’t forget your MyNotary notary can offer some very constructive advice about making a will and inheritance tax liability. If you don’t have a Will, or divorce or remarry before making a new Will, the government decides who gets what.
Notarial clients that have bought property overseas have raised concerns about how to deal with transfer of title after death. Some countries outside of the UK have a mandatory or optional Registry of Wills - all have different rules and regulations. UK nationals owning real estate in Spain often opt to make a separate Will.
Many Brits have bought holidays homes in Bulgaria; the Bulgarian Will making process can be expensive and longwinded if undertaken outside of Bulgaria. A preventive measure is to have you UK Will notarised.
Please make direct contact with your local MyNotary or email The MyNotary Network admin@MyNotary.co.uk to be put in touch with an expert.
