    Anyone can witness as long as they provide their contact details. A next door neighbour, the MD at your office, anyone. The witness cannot be an immediate relative or married to you.

  • I asked a work colleague to sign mine.
  • I was asked to witness a signature (student let contract) as I passed through reception when I was living in halls - not sure asking a random person off the street is the best idea, but apparently it's permissible!
