The Witness Statement Declaration is a crucial document in Singapore's legal system, used in both civil and criminal proceedings. It captures a witness's direct testimony about relevant facts or events, serving as evidence in court proceedings. When preparing a Witness Statement Declaration, the witness must provide accurate, first-hand information and swear to its truthfulness before a Commissioner for Oaths. The document must comply with Singapore's Evidence Act, Oaths and Declarations Act, and relevant Practice Directions, containing specific formatting requirements and mandatory declarations.
