When you need official documents verified for use abroad, one of the most common services requested at Weir Law Solicitors Glasgow is a passport notary.
Whether you’re applying for a visa, studying overseas, or conducting business internationally, a notarised passport ensures your identity documents are legally recognised outside the UK.
What Is a Passport Notary?
A passport notary is a qualified notary public authorised to certify that a copy of your passport is a true and accurate reflection of the original.
The notary verifies your identity, checks the validity of your passport and adds an official seal and signature. This certified copy can then be used for legal or administrative purposes in other countries.

- Company formation or directorship abroad – to authenticate your personal details.
