Remote Online Notarization and Mobile In-Person Notarization are available for eligible documents and qualifying appointments.

Each signer must present valid, unexpired government-issued photo identification bearing a signature, such as a driver’s license, state ID, passport, or military ID.

The location must be safe, sanitary, reasonably quiet, accessible, and have an appropriate surface for signing. Pets must be secured, and required facility access must be arranged in advance.
The appointment may be stopped or declined if the environment is unsafe, unsanitary, disruptive, or does not allow the notarization to be completed properly.
No. It is a mailing address only, not a storefront or walk-in location. All mobile and remote appointments must be scheduled in advance.
Clients are responsible for providing qualified witnesses unless witness availability is confirmed in writing beforehand. The notary does not determine whether your document requires witnesses.
