When you are dealing with documents from a court in a Commonwealth country or a country that New Zealand has an agreement with, you can assume the document is genuine. You do not need to prove the person who signed it is who they say they are. The court will accept the document as evidence if it seems relevant to the case. You can use documents that appear to be signed, certified, or verified by certain people in court proceedings. These documents will be accepted as evidence if they are relevant to the case. This helps make the court process easier and faster. If a document seems to be signed by a Judge, District Court Judge, or court officer, you can trust it until someone proves it is not genuine. This rule applies to documents from countries that have a special agreement with New Zealand, which you can learn more about by visiting the https://legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1986/0120/latest/link.aspx?id=DLM35085. This makes it easier to use documents from other countries in New Zealand courts.
