What people bring us
These are the documents we commission most often over secure video under O. Reg. 431/20. These are common examples, not a complete eligibility list; the exact form and the receiving organization's requirements still matter.
Some documents, including certified true copies of paper or identity documents, wills, powers of attorney, and documents requiring wet ink, are handled in person. Check your exact document to see whether it is online-eligible, requires review, or must be completed in person.

Remote commissioning in Ontario
Eligible oaths and declarations may be commissioned remotely under O. Reg. 431/20 when the required process is followed. That does not require a court, government office, bank, school, or other recipient to accept the document.
Official Ontario sources
The receiving organization decides whether it will accept a remotely commissioned document.
Some forms require an oath or declaration; others specifically require a notarized original.
Ask whether the recipient needs wet ink, an original paper copy, or an apostille or legalization.

“Excellent service, Quan help me a lot, highly recommend guys”
“I had a great experience with Minute Notary. They made the entire virtual notarization process quick, easy, and stress-free. When I later realized I needed a correction made to my document, they took care of it promptly at no extra charge, which I really appreciated. Their pricing is very affordable, and their service is professional, efficient, and friendly. I highly recommend Minute Notary to anyone looking for reliable virtual notary services.”
Before you book
If you are getting a document ready, these cover the essentials: what it costs, what to bring, and when you actually need a notary.
Our pricing is flat: $24.95 for the first stamp or seal and $24.95 for each additional stamp, plus HST. The same rate applies to most services, with no rush fees when you book ahead and no document surcharges. Wills and powers of attorney are signed in person and priced as a bundle: $115 for one document, $200 for any two, and $240 for a will plus both powers of attorney.
Yes. The first signer is included in the flat rate, and each additional person who must also sign is charged extra — $24.95 per additional signer for each document they sign, plus HST. Your total updates automatically as you add signers when you book.
Please bring valid, government-issued photo identification, such as a passport, an Ontario driver’s licence, or an Ontario photo card. Bring the original documents you need notarized, along with any supporting paperwork the receiving organization has asked for.
A commissioner of oaths can administer oaths and take affidavits and declarations for use within Ontario. A notary public can do all of that and also certify true copies, witness signatures, and notarize documents intended for use outside Ontario or abroad. We act in both capacities.
Eligible affidavits, statutory declarations, and selected sworn Ontario, IRCC, and court forms can be commissioned online under O. Reg. 431/20. A travel consent letter is online-eligible when it is prepared as a statutory declaration. At Minute Notary, signature witnessing, certified true copies of paper or identity documents, wills, powers of attorney, trusts, negotiable instruments, documents of title, and documents that require a wet-ink original for apostille or legalization are handled in person. Contracts, custom forms, and documents for use abroad may require review. In general, if the receiving organization does not say a document must be signed in person, it can likely be done online. Select your exact document when booking to see whether it is online-eligible, requires review, or must be completed in person.
A consent letter is not legally required in Canada, but the Government of Canada recommends carrying one when a child travels without every person who has decision-making responsibility. Any adult may witness it, while the Government strongly recommends a notary public. Minute Notary offers two routes. Prepared as a statutory declaration, the parent declares the consent and the notary commissions it over secure video under O. Reg. 431/20. If the airline, border service or consulate asks for a notary-witnessed signature instead, the notary witnesses the signature in person, on a mobile visit, because no Ontario regulation permits witnessing a signature over video. Carry the original signed letter, check airline and destination rules, and remember that acceptance is not guaranteed.
Yes. We work by appointment so we can prepare for your document and arrange the online signing or a mobile visit. Same-day slots are usually available any day of the week, including Saturday and Sunday. Book online or call (613) 434-5555.
An online appointment takes 3-4 minutes on average once we are on the call — affidavits, statutory declarations and the sworn forms we commission over video. In-person work is longer because the notary has to inspect something physical: certified copies and signature witnessing usually take 10 to 15 minutes.
Based in Ottawa
