Notary Questions
What documents can a notary public notarize?
A California notary public can notarize eligible documents when the signer meets the applicable requirements. Common examples include powers of attorney, affidavits, acknowledgments, and certain legal or business documents.
What identification does a California notary require?
A California notary generally requires acceptable identification that meets California's identification requirements. A valid government-issued photo ID is commonly used, although other forms of identification may qualify under applicable rules.
Do I need fingerprinting to become a California notary public?
Yes. California notary applicants must complete a background check that includes Live Scan fingerprinting as part of the commissioning process. The fingerprinting requirement helps complete the required background screening.
Can I get notary and fingerprinting done in the same appointment?
In many cases, notary and fingerprinting services can be arranged during the same appointment. Contact us when scheduling so we can confirm the requirements and availability for both services.
Can a notary notarize a document written in a foreign language?
A California notary may notarize a document written in a foreign language when the legal requirements for notarization are met. The notary must be able to communicate with the signer sufficiently to perform the notarial act.
