Who We Serve in Cranbourne & South-East Melbourne

Frequently Asked Questions
A Notary Public is a qualified lawyer appointed by the Supreme Court of Victoria who is authorised to witness signatures, certify documents, administer oaths, and prepare documents for use in Australia and overseas. Notarised documents are recognised internationally under the Hague Apostille Convention and by foreign governments, courts, banks, and regulatory authorities.
Bring the original documents you need notarised, along with valid photo identification (current passport or Australian driver’s licence). If documents need to be signed, do not sign them before the appointment – the Notary must witness the signing. If you are acting on behalf of a company, bring evidence of your authority.
An Apostille is a certificate issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) that authenticates the Notary’s seal and signature. It is required for documents being sent to countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention. We arrange Apostilles on your behalf.
Fees depend on the complexity and number of documents. We provide a quote before your appointment so there are no surprises. Contact us on 1800 776 529 to discuss your requirements and receive a fee estimate.
Yes. Radek Dajer is one of only two Polish-speaking notaries in Victoria. He can explain documents, take instructions, and conduct the entire notarial process in Polish.
Most appointments take between 15 and 45 minutes depending on the number and complexity of documents. If an Apostille or embassy legalisation is required, this typically takes several additional business days.
