What is a Notary Public?

A Notary Public is a state appointed individual who provides services to the public. The Notary verifies the signer’s identity using their approved identification and takes acknowledgment of the signer executing the document, or administers an oath and witnesses the signing of the document. The Notary Public does not give legal advice, complete documents, or verify that the documents are true or legally binding. The New Jersey Notary Public only verifies the person’s identity.

What does a Notary Public charge?

The pricing of a Notary Publics service is at their discretion. The fees vary based on distance travelled, and number of signatures notarized. The state mandates a maximum fee per signature which all Notary Public’s abide by, however, they do not mandate what the maximum is that can be charged for other fees.

Why get something notarized?

Because its required by law on some documents. Or to have an impartial witness to the signing. Some courses of business require notarization of signatures when the signer is not present to sign at the destination the document will be going to. Say a document being sent to Washington, and the individual is in New Jersey, some businesses request notarization to feel more confident that the signer indeed did sign the document that they were mailed.

Can a Notary Public refuse to help me?

Absolutely not. If a Notary Public is presented with proper identification, documents, and a request by the member of the public, they may not refuse to provide their services unless they are unable to complete the notarization because the document is not filled out, or ID is not presented, etc. If a paying customer makes the proper request, the Notary shall provide service.

Is a Notary Public a Notario Publico?

No! The english version of Notary Public is as described above, a Notary Public in New Jersey is not the same as Notario Publico, and translation of Notary Public to Notario Publico is prohibited.
