FAQs

A notary public is an official appointed by the state to serve as an impartial witness in the signing of important documents, administer oaths, and prevent fraud.

Notaries can notarize various documents, including affidavits, deeds, contracts, wills, powers of attorney, and more. However, the specific types of documents may vary depending on state laws.

You must present a valid, government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, passport, or state ID. The ID must be current and include your signature.

Notaries  avoid notarizing documents for close family members to prevent any conflict of interest or questions about impartiality. Check local laws, as they may vary.

The cost of notary services varies by state. Some states set a maximum fee that notaries can charge, while others allow notaries to set their own fees. It’s best to ask about the fee before the service.

Yes, a notary can refuse to notarize a document if they suspect fraud, if the signer does not have proper identification, if the document is incomplete, or if the signer does not understand what they are signing.

Acknowledgment: The signer acknowledges that they signed the document voluntarily.
Jurat: The signer swears or affirms that the contents of the document are true and signs it in the notary’s presence.

No, notaries are not allowed to provide legal advice unless they are also licensed attorneys. They can only offer notarial services.

Some states allow for remote online notarization (RON), where the notary and signer meet through a secure online platform. Check your state’s regulations to see if this service is available.

You can either arrange for a mobile notary to come to your location, or if your state allows, use remote online notarization.

Typically, the process takes only a few minutes, depending on the number of documents and the type of notarization required.

While some notaries accept walk-ins, it’s best to make an appointment to ensure availability, especially for more complex notarizations or outside of regular business hours.
