Description |
The purpose of a jurat — also known in some states as a “verification upon oath or affirmation” — is for a signer to swear to or affirm the truthfulness of the contents of a document to a Notary or notarial officer. Jurats are administered by Notary Publics as a means of verifying with the signer, that all of the document’s content are truthful. They are typically carried out along with a verbal oath or affirmation. |
