Mobile notary travel and convenience fees

Statutory notarial fees cover the notarial act itself. Mobile appointments involve travel time, parking, scheduling complexity, and sometimes after-hours availability. For mobile service, we disclose travel and convenience fees before confirming the appointment, so you can approve the total cost in advance.

Notary fees and eligibility depend on the type of notarization and the document requirements. Notaries cannot provide legal advice or tell you what document to use.
