Statutory Declaration for European University Applications

Navigating International University Applications?

Securing a place at a European university often involves meticulous documentation, and sometimes a Statutory Declaration is a crucial, yet often confusing, requirement. If you're a Kenyan applicant wondering how to obtain a Statutory Declaration for your European university application, you're in the right place. This document, typically used to confirm facts or statements under oath, can be a hurdle. Understanding its purpose and process is key to a smooth application journey.

Understanding the Statutory Declaration in Kenya

A Statutory Declaration is a written statement of fact that the person making it (the declarant) signs and declares to be true in the presence of a solicitor, notary public, commissioner for oaths, or other authorised person. For Kenyan students applying to European universities, this might be required to confirm details such as your identity, residential status, or the authenticity of supporting documents if original copies cannot be provided. The specific requirements will be outlined by the university. It's essential to ensure the declaration is correctly formatted and witnessed according to Kenyan legal standards to be accepted by European institutions.

Cost and Practicalities for Kenyan Applicants

The cost associated with obtaining a Statutory Declaration can vary. While the fee for witnessing the declaration by an authorised legal professional in Kenya is typically modest, often ranging from KES 1,000 to KES 5,000, depending on the complexity and the professional's charges, this is separate from any potential administrative fees. It's crucial to factor in the time required for preparation and witnessing. For specific university requirements, always refer to their official guidelines to ensure you are preparing the correct document.
