SC extends anew validity of notarial commissions until December 2022

The Supreme Court on Wednesday granted the request of the Integrated Bar of the Philippines and extended anew the validity of existing notarial commissions set to expire by the end of June.

According to the Court, the commissions shall remain valid for an additional period of six months beginning July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022.

“The notaries public whose terms are deemed extended pursuant to this Resolution shall continue performing notarial acts using their existing seals,” it  said in a statement.

“The extension is granted by the Court on account of the current COVID-19 pandemic,” it added.

In October 2021, the Court extended the validity of the commissions until June 30.—LDF, GMA News
