Document background
A Joint Affidavit Of Discrepancy is commonly used in Singapore when there is a need to officially correct errors or inconsistencies in important documents such as identification papers, certificates, or official records. This document requires at least two deponents to jointly verify the existence of the discrepancy and confirm the correct information. It must be properly executed in accordance with Singapore law, typically before a Commissioner for Oaths, and includes detailed information about the nature of the discrepancy, supporting evidence, and the correct information to be recognized. The document is particularly important in situations where formal recognition of the error and its correction is required by authorities.
