Notary Public in Ottawa

Minute Notary is based in Ottawa, so the capital is home turf. Affidavits and statutory declarations are available over a secure video appointment, and mobile service is available across the Ottawa area for documents that must be signed in person.

Book a time that suits you, join the video call, present your identification, and the notary witnesses and seals your document under Ontario law. Federal documents — common for public servants and newcomers — can be commissioned online from anywhere.

Minute Notary's office is at 8056 Jeanne d'Arc Blvd N in Orléans, in Ottawa's east end. Ottawa is the one city on this site where you have the full range of options: a video appointment, an in-person visit to the Orléans office, or mobile service where the notary travels to you. Everywhere else, we are online only.

That matters because some documents cannot lawfully be completed over video. Certified true copies of paper originals, powers of attorney, and documents heading for authentication abroad all need the physical document in the notary's hands. If you are in Ottawa, those are still possible — book in person instead of online.

Ottawa also has a document profile no other Canadian city shares. The federal public service generates a steady stream of pension attestations, security-clearance declarations, and employment affidavits, and the city's large newcomer population brings IRCC paperwork.
