13.11.2025 22:20:10 From a legal perspective, the Ukrainian Consulate in San Francisco can provide notarial services, including notarizing affidavits, for Ukrainian citizens or residents, as consular officers are authorized to perform such acts under international conventions and U.S. law (e.g., the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations). These notarizations are generally recognized in the United States and can be used for domestic purposes, such as submitting to an American school, provided the document is in English or accompanied by a certified translation if needed. However, acceptance ultimately depends on the specific requirements of your child's school—some may prefer or require a U.S. notary public for simplicity. It's advisable to confirm with the school beforehand to ensure the consular notarization will suffice.
