How to Lodge a Statutory Declaration Form

You may need to lodge a Statutory Declaration form in the following situations:

• Someone else’s services are already connected at a property you own or rent (preventing you from getting services connected to that address).
• You need to take ownership of an account because the owner can no longer be contacted for any reason.
• Any other situation that requires a legal statement from you.

If you don't know what to do with your statutory declaration, please contact us.

How to lodge a Statutory Declaration

1. Download and/or print a copy of the form here. Single-sided or double-sided printing is acceptable. If you do not have access to a printer, you can get a Statutory Declaration form from your local Post Office. Alternatively, your local library may be able to help you print the form.
2. Using a black or blue pen, fill out your Name, Address and Occupation, and then write your declaration in the space provided. If you are making a declaration as an authorised representative for a business, be sure to state this clearly. We've included some examples of written declarations below.

   Example 1: Making a declaration as an individual

3. Take your Statutory Declaration to be signed by a witness. A list of acceptable witnesses can be found on the Statutory Declaration form.
4. Sign and date your form in front of your witness and then have them sign their name and title.
