Witnesses

If your document requires witnesses in addition to the notary, you must bring these witnesses with you. Consular staff cannot serve as witnesses or help you find a witness. Witnesses cannot be relatives, and must present a passport to enter the Embassy/Consular Agency. If your document has a space for a witness to sign but you did not bring one, you can either make a new appointment or let the Embassy/Consular Agency staff assume no witness is required and prepare the document as such.
