Valid photo ID MUST be presented at the time of notarization. According to the Secretary of State's website, " A notary public may have satisfactory evidence of the signer’s identity by viewing a passport, driver’s license or other government issued photo identification card."
All parties signing the document, whose signatures require acknowledgement before the notary, must appear in-person.
Documents must be completed before notarization, with the exception of the signatures. Signing the document should take place in the notary's presence.
Please bring witnesses, if required.
