What Is a Notary Public?
A notary public is a qualified legal professional — in Ireland, always a practising solicitor with additional qualifications — authorised to certify documents for use in other countries. Unlike a commissioner for oaths (who can certify documents for use in Ireland only), a notary public's seal and signature is recognised internationally and can be further authenticated with an apostille from the Department of Foreign Affairs.
Hugh Phelan is a practising solicitor and notary public with extensive experience in international document certification. He serves clients from Fermoy North, Douglas, Cork city, and all surrounding areas, providing expert guidance on the specific requirements of foreign authorities.
