What is Witnessing Signatures?

Witnessing a signature involves a neutral third party, such as a notary public, confirming the identity of the signatory and verifying that the signature is made willingly and without coercion. This process adds credibility to legal documents and ensures they are enforceable in Nepal and internationally.

In Nepal, the witnessing of signatures is regulated under the Notary Public Act, 2063, which ensures that the authentication of documents adheres to legal standards. Notary services, including signature witnessing, are often required for:

• Affidavits and sworn statements
• Powers of attorney
• Certification of legal documents
• Wills and trust agreements
• Court and business-related documents
