What are Notarial services?
Notarial services are offered by appointment only at the Australian Embassy in Harare. Please visit Smartraveller before booking an appointment to learn about the different types of notarial services we offer and requirements before we can perform them. Please bring your valid passport or ID card and the original documents to the appointment.
Notarial fees
The Embassy is governed by the Consular Fees Act 1955 and the fees charged are stipulated therein. Fees are payable at the time of appointment using a credit or debit card. Diner’s Club, American Express or virtual cards are not accepted. Payments by credit card are made in AUD only. Note the fees are payable per document/signature and per copy and are non-refundable.
To make a notarial appointment please visit the online appointment booking page.
Australian driver’s licences
The Australian Embassy in Harare cannot renew Australian driver’s licences. Please contact the relevant road authority in Australia to obtain the necessary form for renewing your licence while residing overseas. If the form from the relevant road authority requires signatures witnessed or photos endorsed, the Embassy may be able to assist with this but notarial service fees will be charged.
The Embassy can assist with a verification of driver's licence letter to convert your Australian driver’s licence into a local one. A notarial service fee will be charged.
