A statutory declaration is a legal document that contains a written statement about something that is true. It must be witnessed by an approved person.

A statutory declaration is an important legal document and must therefore be verified. It will usually have to be administered by a commissioner for oaths, a solicitor, or a notary public.

A statutory declaration is a legal document defined under the law of certain Commonwealth nations.Statutory declarations are commonly used to allow a person to declare something to be true for the purposes of satisfying some legal requirement or regulation when no other evidence is available.

Section 2 of a statutory declaration is where you write your statement. You can type your statement, or use a pen. You should not use a pencil because information could be erased.

Statutory declarations don't have to be notarized. Yes they do, that is the very legal definition of a "statutory declaration". It must be done in front of a person who is authorized to administer oaths (like a lawyer or notary), so that person will need to stamp or sign the document.
