Q | Can a B-BBEE Sworn Affidavit be commissioned by a Commissioner of Oaths connected to the deponent that is an EME or QSE with more than 51% ‘Black’ Ownership? For example, ABC Traders’ Financial Director is a Commissioner of Oaths; can that person commission its affidavit?
A | Commissioner of Oaths must be independent as per the Justices of the Peace and Commissioners of Oath Act. Therefore, ABC Traders may not have its Financial Director commission their Sworn Affidavit.
B-BBEE Verification Services are available to assist members to ensure that they understand the requirements for Valid Sworn Affidavits.
