As a Notary Public, we cannot notarize our own signature. In some cases, a Notary can be a witness as well as notarize the document if the witness signatures are not being notarized. You should carefully review your document and check with the person receiving it to determine witness requirements before attending the Notary office.

In some of our offices, there is one additional witness available for an additional fee. But we cannot guarantee that a witness will be available to you. Call the specific office you intend to attend in advance to check on this issue. If your document requires  a witness, it’s best to bring one in.  Each witness will have to show a piece of valid photo identification. Please note that we never provide witnesses to wills.

To have a signature witnessed or a declaration administered, a person must be present in person and sign the document in front of the Notary Public for the document to be notarized. You cannot bring in documents for other people unless all that is required is a certified copy.

No, we do not.
