Do I need an appointment?
No appointment is needed for regular in-office service. Check your preferred office’s live opening status before visiting.
What should I bring?
Bring your complete document and one piece of valid government-issued photo identification, such as a driver’s licence, passport or permanent resident card.
Some documents require additional witnesses or special preparation. Review our instructions before visiting.
Can Walk-In Notary prepare my document?
Yes. Walk-In Notary offers drafting services for selected documents, including affidavits, statutory declarations, invitation letters, travel consent letters and certain other declarations.
Can I prepare my document online with InstaDraft?
Yes. Our partner InstaDraft provides guided online document preparation. Complete the appropriate form online, print your finished document and bring it to a Walk-In Notary office if notarization or witnessed signing is required.
What is the difference between a lawyer, notary public and commissioner of oaths?
This is a common question because the three designations have different roles. A commissioner of oaths can administer oaths and take affidavits or declarations. A notary public has additional authority, including certifying true copies and notarizing eligible documents.
At Walk-In Notary, our notaries are lawyers and commissioners of oaths. This means we can provide both notarization and commissioning services for eligible documents during an in-person visit.
Can a notary come to me?
Mobile notary appointments may be available at homes, offices, hospitals and care facilities. Mobile service must be arranged in advance, and travel fees are separate from notarization fees.
