Overview
What is Affidavit of Loss?
An affidavit of loss is a sworn statement, signed before a Commissioner for Oaths at a Nigerian high court, declaring that a document has been lost. Banks, embassies, schools and the police all accept it as evidence to issue a replacement.
Going to court yourself means a half-day in queue. Docufy drafts the affidavit, files it at a partner-firm-affiliated registry, and delivers the stamped, verified PDF to your vault.
