Notary & commissioning for Windsor

You can have it commissioned online, without leaving Windsor.

Windsor residents can have documents commissioned by an Ontario Notary Public over a secure video appointment — affidavits and statutory declarations, all handled remotely.

Reserve a time, join the video call, present your identification, and sign while the notary witnesses and seals your document under Ontario law. Federal documents can be commissioned online from anywhere in the region.

Before the call

Have these ready and the appointment takes minutes

Remote commissioning is governed by Ontario law (O. Reg. 431/20). The commissioner checks your identity on camera, watches you sign, then seals the document and sends it back.

Online or in person

What can be done online — and what needs an in-person visit

Not every document can be commissioned remotely. Here is the honest split for Windsor clients. See how our online notary service works.

Documents that need an in-person visit

Wet-ink signature required by law

We are online-only in Windsor. If you can come to the Ottawa area, our Orléans office and mobile service handle these — otherwise a notary or commissioner local to you is the right choice.

Windsor: a border city with cross-border paperwork

Windsor sits directly across the river from Detroit and is one of Canada's busiest land border crossings. Cross-border life produces documents other Ontario cities see less often: child travel consent letters for parents crossing with children, declarations about residency, and affidavits supporting dual-country family arrangements.

Windsor's automotive manufacturing sector and the University of Windsor add employment declarations, insurance statements, and student paperwork.

Windsor also has a significant number of residents who work in Michigan or have family on both sides of the border, which raises questions about which documents an Ontario commissioner can and cannot handle. Documents intended for use in the United States often need authentication or an apostille, and Ontario’s Official Documents Services only apostilles a wet-ink notarized original, so those are in-person appointments rather than video ones.

Commonly requested in Windsor

  • Child travel consent letters for cross-border travel
  • Residency and address statutory declarations
  • Employment declarations for the automotive sector
  • Student declarations for the University of Windsor and St. Clair College
  • Vehicle transfer affidavits
  • Common-law union declarations for benefits
  • Affidavits of translation
