General Notarization FAQs
What should I bring to a notary appointment?
A current government-issued photo ID and your unsigned document. Do not sign anything before the notary is present — the signature must be made in front of them for most notarization types.
Can a notary refuse to notarize my document?
Yes. A notary must refuse if the signer cannot be identified, appears coerced or not competent, or if the document is incomplete. This protects you from fraud and invalid documents.
Does a notarized document become legally binding?
Notarization verifies identity and willingness to sign — it does not make document contents legal or enforceable. Consult an attorney for questions about your document's effect.
