I had an absolutely phenomenal experience. They were incredibly professional from start to finish and made a notoriously tedious process completely seamless. They were able to quickly and effectively obtain my name change documents with zero hassle or delays. I cannot recommend their services highly enough to anyone looking for fast, reliable expertise!

Did everything (including sending someone in-person) to make 100% sure they're legit and THEY ARE. Delivered the police clearance I paid for without hassle and were kind on the phone. Would recommend!

COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you start

A few quick answers before you send your enquiry.

Are you a government department?

No. Certificate Assistance is an independent private service provider. We assist clients with document requirements and applications. SAPS, Home Affairs, DIRCO and other relevant authorities retain their official roles. Any DIRCO registration does not make us a government department.

Can you assist if I live overseas?

Yes. Tell us which document you need and the country where it will be used. We’ll explain the available application and courier options. Some processes may still require steps in person.

How do I know which service I need?

Use the smart enquiry form and select “Not sure which service I need”. Tell us where the document will be used and we’ll guide you from there.

Do you guarantee government turnaround times?

No. We explain the estimated service timeframe before you proceed, but the responsible authority controls its own processing. Record checks, missing information and courier delivery can add time.
