Common questions
Good to know before you visit.
Can the notarization be completed remotely?
California currently requires personal appearance for common notarial acts such as acknowledgments and jurats. Call the store if you are unsure whether your request can be handled.
Should I sign the document before arriving?
Wait to sign until the notary reviews the request and directs you. Requirements differ depending on the notarial act.
Can the notary choose or prepare my legal document?
A notary verifies identity and performs authorized notarial acts; a notary who is not an attorney cannot provide legal advice. Bring the document and instructions supplied by the requesting organization.
