Certified copies of documents

The team from Citizens Advice Bureau New Plymouth

Sometimes you need a certified copy of a document. This means that an authorised person signs the document to confirm that it is a true copy of the original.

This is one of the services provided by a Justice of the Peace (JP). There is a JP in attendance at our New Plymouth office on Monday mornings.

This service is free, and no appointment is necessary.

If Monday mornings don't suit, check with us about when a JP is available at other locations.
