Who can certify a document, and how? A certified document is a photocopy of an original document that has been sighted and certified as a true and accurate representation of the original. This process is completed by an authorized person to compare and sight the two documents before properly signing, dating, and/or stamping the copy to confirm its authenticity. There is a long list of different people who are authorized to certify documents in Australia. This may include your local pharmacist, chartered accountant, medical practitioners, or Justice of Peace (JP).
