As of 13 August 2026, AI can only partly fill in your statutory declaration form.

What to actually do

1. Hand it to a person

   The route this page recommends

   A person who owns the outcome does this end to end, worth it when the failure is dear.

2. Use a tool built for this

   Second choice

3. Do it yourself

   The distant third

   A chat interface, chat-fluent skill, and roughly 30 minutes until you can act on the result.

   How to actually do it

   1. Open the current statutory declaration form and its official instructions from the relevant UK government or court website, and confirm the jurisdiction shown on the documents.
   2. Gather the records needed for the fields, such as identification details, dates, names, addresses and supporting documents, and remove unrelated personal information before sharing anything with a chatbot.
   3. Paste or attach the form and instructions, then paste the facts using the copyable prompt without asking the model to decide whether a statutory declaration is the right legal document.
   4. Transfer the model's proposed entries into the official form, keeping the original wording and marking every item it labels as needing your check.
   5. Compare every name, date, address and event against your records and the official instructions, and ask a solicitor about legal suitability if the declaration concerns a serious dispute, property, immigration or another significant legal matter.
   6. Arrange signing, swearing or affirming and witnessing exactly as the official instructions require, and do not sign before the authorised witness is present.
   7. Send or submit the completed and witnessed declaration only through the route stated in the official instructions, retaining a copy of everything submitted.

   Prompt

   I need help completing a UK statutory declaration form. The jurisdiction is [England and Wales, Scotland, or Northern Ireland]. I will provide the official form, its instructions and my own facts below.
   
   Use only the information in those materials. Do not invent, infer or improve any fact. Preserve the form's wording and structure. For each field, give the exact proposed entry and identify the source of the information. Mark any missing, contradictory or uncertain item as [NEEDS MY CHECK] rather than guessing. Do not decide that the declaration is legally suitable for my situation, do not tell me what I should swear or affirm, and do not draft facts that I have not provided.
   
   Also produce:
   1. A list of fields that remain incomplete.
   2. A list of factual checks I must make against my records.
   3. A separate list of instructions in the official materials about signing, swearing or affirming, witnessing, attachments and submission.
   4. A short warning that I must not sign or swear or affirm the declaration until the authorised witness is present, and that I should ask a solicitor about legal suitability or any serious dispute.
   
   Official form and instructions:
   [PASTE OR ATTACH THEM]
   
   My facts and supporting records:
   [PASTE ONLY THE INFORMATION NEEDED FOR THE FORM]
