Vaccination Exemption Notary in Ontario

Parents in Ontario who choose not to vaccinate their child due to conscience or religious beliefs are required to submit a legal document known as the Statement of Conscience or Religious Belief Affidavit. This form must be signed in front of a notary public in order to be accepted by your local public health unit, school board, or daycare.

At Dodo Notary, we provide efficient, affordable notarization services for this form to help make the process easy for families.

What Is the Vaccination Exemption Form?

The Ontario Ministry of Health provides a specific document that parents must complete if they are seeking a non-medical exemption from routine childhood vaccinations. The form is called the Immunization of School Pupils Act (ISPA) – Statement of Conscience or Religious Belief Affidavit.

This document must be printed, completed, and signed in the presence of a notary public before it is submitted.
