How to complete the Statutory
Declaration.
The Statutory Declaration should be completed and returned to
the Traffic Enforcement Centre within 21
days, although there are provisions whereby the court may
allow a longer period of time.
Our understanding is that you may have 36
days from authorisation of the warrant to submit a Statutory
Declaration “out of time”
but in any event no later than one month from the end of the 36
day period.
Once a warrant of execution has been authorised by the TEC you
cannot file a statutory declaration. Instead, you have to file
a Statutory Declaration “Out of Time” and complete
a Statutory Declaration form.
How do I get this sworn?
Once you have completed the Statutory Declaration, you can go
to almost any High Street solicitor and ask at the reception desk
if there is a solicitor free to swear the document. You may have
to wait 5 or 10 minutes, at most. Nearly always, a Junior Solicitor
will deal with these matters, and he will simply ask that you
swear on oath that the document is yours and that it contains
your signature and words. There is a small fee of approx: £8
for this.
Alternatively, you can visit any County Court and go to the enquiries
desk where you can swear the document. The court will
not make a charge for this. Please note that TEC will refuse
the Declaration if it has not been sworn correctly.
The completed form must be sent to The Traffic Enforcement Centre,
Northampton not the local authority.
The address will be on the Statutory Declaration Form.
