Per-Page Signatures: If you require the lawyer’s signature on every page of the document, the fee will be calculated at HK$100 per signature.
2. Requirements for Original Hard Copies
To certify a document, our lawyer must physically inspect the original paper version to verify that the copies are identical.
-
If your documents (such as bank statements) are only available online, please visit the issuing institution or bank first.
-
Most institutions can print the statements and stamp them with their official seal. We can readily certify those stamped versions.
3. Requirements for Electronic Documents (e-Certificates)
For the certification of official electronic documents, clients must log into the institution's official portal in the presence of our lawyer.
The certified copy will include the following mandatory endorsement:
"I certify that this document was downloaded and printed directly from the official online portal of [Institution] in my presence, following a live login witnessed by me on [Date]."
