Frequently asked questions

Yes. A UK-qualified solicitor witnesses you signing live on the video call. Check that the authority receiving the document accepts remote witnessing — see the question on jurisdictions below.

You need a valid photo ID — a passport or driving licence. Hold it up to the camera during the call so the solicitor can verify your identity before witnessing the declaration.

No. Do not sign the document beforehand. The solicitor must witness you signing live during the video call. A pre-signed document cannot be witnessed and will be invalid.

Most appointments take 10 to 20 minutes. Have your document and ID ready before the call starts.

A Declaration of Solvency is a sworn statement by company directors confirming the company can pay all its debts within 12 months. It is a legal requirement to commence a Members' Voluntary Liquidation (MVL). The solicitor witnesses the directors signing the LIQ01 form.

The majority of the company's directors must sign the LIQ01 Declaration of Solvency in front of a solicitor. If there are two directors, both must be present on the call. Check the LIQ01 form and Companies House guidance for the current requirements.

An affidavit is a written sworn statement of fact used in court proceedings. Affidavit witnessing means a UK-qualified solicitor witnesses you swearing the contents are true and signing the document. StatDec Hub facilitates remote affidavit witnessing via video call.

Acceptance of remotely witnessed declarations varies by jurisdiction and the authority receiving the document. It is your sole responsibility to confirm that the accepting authority will accept a remotely witnessed document before booking. StatDec Hub does not provide legal advice on jurisdictional requirements.

After the call, email the signed declaration to the solicitor. They countersign it and email it back to you, usually the same day. Nothing needs to be posted.

Email info@statdechub.co.uk with your booking reference and we will look into what happened. Acceptance is decided by the receiving authority, which is why we ask you to check with them before booking; our Terms of Service set out the position on liability.
