Statutory declarations

A witness for a statutory declaration

A statutory declaration under the Oaths Act 1867 in Queensland must be signed in the presence of an authorised witness.

Who can witness your statutory declaration depends on:

  • how it is signed—on paper or electronically
  • how it is witnessed—in person or by audio visual link.

See the Who can witness a statutory declaration or affidavit in Queensland fact sheet for more information.
