Justice of the peace (JP) service at Citizens Advice branches in Christchurch

The Team from Citizens Advice Christchurch Area

We have JPs at our New Brighton and Hornby branches as follows:

New Brighton - 133 Brighton Mall (between It Takes a Village and Seaside Treasures) - 03 366 6490
- Wednesday 10.30-11.30

Hornby community centre (8 Goulding Avenue) – 03 349 5236
– Monday - 9.30-12.30
- Thursday - 9.30-12.30

All are a Drop in service – you might want to give us a call on the day to check it is running

Here are some tips to help you get your paperwork right when you visit with a JP:
- If you want to certify a true copy, have the original document and the copy with you.
- If certifying transcripts printed from the internet or email attachments, the JP will need to see the original website or email on your computer or cell phone (or our office computer).
- If you are certifying a text message, the JP will need to see the whole message on your computer or cell phone.
- If certifying documents for banks or financial institutions, need a declaration or you need an affidavit, the JP needs to see the person named in the document and their photo ID e.g. Passport, Drivers licence or 18+ card.
