Identification Requirements
Valid Photo ID
You must provide a current, government-issued photo identification such as a valid driver's license or passport.

All identification must be non-expired at the time of your appointment to ensure your document can be legally notarized.

Signing Rules & Best Practices
- Wait to Sign: Documents should generally not be signed in advance. For a notarization to be valid, the notary public must personally witness your signature in real-time during your appointment.
- Capacity & Willingness: Every signer whose name appears on the document must be physically present and demonstrate that they are aware of the document's contents and acting of their own free will.
- Witness Coordination: If your document specifically requires witnesses in addition to the notary, please ensure they are coordinated and present at the scheduled time to prevent delays.

Frequently Asked Questions
What forms of ID are required for notarization?
All signing parties must present a valid, unexpired government-issued photo identification. Acceptable forms of ID include a North Carolina driver’s license, U.S. passport, or U.S. military ID. The name on the identification must match the name printed on the document.
What if my document contains errors or is incomplete?
The document must be completely filled out (except for the signature fields) prior to the notary's arrival. If there are incorrect sections or blank spaces, we cannot proceed with the notarization as it increases the risk of fraud. Please review your paperwork carefully beforehand.
Can you explain the legal details of my document to me?
No. As a notary public, I am not an attorney and I am prohibited by North Carolina law from explaining the legal meaning, effect, or implications of your documents. My role is strictly to witness signatures and verify identity. Please consult legal counsel for advice.
How far in advance should I schedule my appointment?
We recommend scheduling your visit 24 to 48 hours in advance to secure your preferred time and location. However, we understand that urgent needs arise and we always strive to accommodate same-day requests in and around Fayetteville whenever possible.
Do you offer same-day appointments?
Same-day visits may be available depending on schedule and location. Clients should call or text 910-273-3439 to ask about urgent availability.
