Notarization F.A.Q

Q: Can You Notarize Over The Phone?

While some states are expanding their remote online notarization programs, these basically always require real time video communication rather than a traditional telephone. Check with your Notary to be sure, but expect that the answer will be no.

Q: Who Can Be A Witness?

Some documents require a third party witness to the signing, but not all. Rules again vary by state, so check with your Notary on whether a witness is needed and any specific requirements. Generally speaking it will need to be someone with no interest in (not mentioned in or otherwise impacted by) the agreement outlined in the document. Friends and neighbors are a good bet.

Q: What Forms Of ID Are Accepted

Check with your notary ahead of time, but government issued IDs including Drivers Licenses, Passports, Military ID, Green Cards are commonly accepted. Make sure it has a photo, and remember it's at their discretion to refuse to notarize if they aren't convinced of your identity.

Q: Can A Document Be Notarized Without Being Physically Present?

Remote or Online Notarization is a viable option in some states that's gaining significant traction even prior to COVID-19. Check for state specific guidelines with your Notary.
