Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to bring to a notarization?

You'll need the document(s) to be notarized and a valid, government-issued photo ID (like a driver's license, passport, or state ID). Some documents may also require witnesses, so check ahead of time.

Can a notary explain or help me fill out the document?

No. A notary is not allowed to give legal advice or help fill out forms unless they are also a licensed attorney or certified in specific roles. Their job is to verify identity and witness signatures.

Can a notary notarize a document if the signer isn’t present?

No. The signer must personally appear before the notary at the time of notarization

What kind of ID is acceptable for notarization?

Typically, a current government-issued photo ID with a signature, such as a driver’s license, passport, or state ID.

Can I use a photocopy of my ID for notarization?

No. Original identification is required. A photocopy is not sufficient because the notary must verify your identity using official, government-issued documentation.

Can you provide a witness for my notarization?

Yes. I can provide a witness for your notarization at an additional cost. Please check documentation prior to scheduling, some require more than one witness.
