In the United Kingdom and many other Common Law jurisdictions particular documents require to be sworn before a qualified legal individual known as a Commissioner for Oaths. This is an ancient workplace which is appointed by the lord Chancellor for the jurisdiction in England and Wales.

The workplace of Commissioner for Oaths is granted to the following professional lawyers subject to particular conditions:

-    Barristers in practice
-    Solicitors in practice
-    Notary Public
-    Legal Executive (conditional)
-    Licensed Conveyancer (conditional)

An essential point to be aware of is that a Commissioner for Oaths should not use these powers in any proceedings in which they are already acting for any of the parties or in any procedure in which they have an interest.

From time to time people and companies find that they have a requirement for the services of a Commissioner for Oaths to witness the signing and swearing of documents but may be unclear where to find one. The simplest course is to attempt a local solicitor or two.

On a sensible note discovering one to actually do something for you is becoming increasingly difficult. This is because the official charging structure suggests nominal payments of £5 for swearing an affidavit and £2 per exhibit including VAT

Most solicitors, who are in reality the biggest group of lawyers, charge in 6 minute units so for an typical solicitor charging £150 + VAT per hour, two 6 minute units would normally be worth £30 +VAT. The result is many refuse to do this sort of work or contrive to charge higher fees.

So you will know when you require one but can you effortlessly find one to act for you? If one turns you down just maintain trying.
