Online affidavit of statements in Las Rozas de Madrid

Yes, it has exactly the same legal validity. According to Law 11/2023 regulating remote notarial acts, a sworn statement made via video conference with qualified electronic signature has full legal effectiveness.

The notary verifies your identity, the session is recorded, and the electronically signed document meets all requirements to be valid in any administrative or judicial proceeding.

The complete process usually takes 24 to 48 business hours, depending on:

• Availability of video conference appointments
• How quickly you send the required documentation
• Complexity of the certificate content

Once the video conference is completed and the document is signed, you receive the final certificate within the agreed timeframe with the notary office.

• Valid identity document: ID, foreigner ID, or passport scanned with good resolution
