Affidavit in Chandigarh
An affidavit in Chandigarh is a sworn statement of your own facts. You swear it before a notary public, an oath commissioner or an executive magistrate, on stamp paper, and the office that asked for it keeps the original.
Stamp paper for an affidavit in Chandigarh
In Chandigarh our general affidavit page places a plain affidavit under Article 4 of Schedule I to the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 as extended to the Union Territory, on stamp paper from SHCIL or the Treasury at Sector 17. It gives no separate Chandigarh figure, so confirm the denomination with the vendor or the Treasury counter before you pay. Some banks, schools and employers accept plain paper for an internal file; ask what the recipient wants.
Getting it sworn in Chandigarh
Appear in person with photo identification and sign in front of the attesting officer, who writes the register serial number, the date and the seal. Notaries work around the District Courts at Sector 43 and near the 30 Bays Building at Sector 17.
An affidavit cannot be registered and needs no witness. Get a separate sworn original for each recipient. If it supports a case pending in a court, use the General Court Affidavit instead.
