Be ready

- A current, government-issued photo ID (driver's license, state ID, U.S. passport, or military ID)
- All documents to be notarized — please do NOT pre-sign unless instructed by the receiving party
- Any additional signers or required witnesses (we can often help identify witnesses)
- Payment method (cash, card, or invoice for business clients)
FAQ
Service questions, answered.
Do I need to sign the documents before you arrive?
No — please do not pre-sign anything unless the receiving party specifically instructs you to. Most notarial acts require you to sign in the notary's presence.
What ID do you accept?
Any current, unexpired, government-issued photo ID — typically a driver's license, state ID, U.S. passport, military ID, or permanent resident card. The name on the ID should reasonably match the name on the document.
Can you provide witnesses?
We can often help arrange a credible witness, but this is not always possible at short notice. When you book, let us know if witnesses are required and how many.
Do you offer remote online notarization (RON)?
Yes. We can notarize documents via a secure video session through the Proof platform for $25 per signature, available anywhere in Washington State.
What payment methods do you accept?
Cash, major credit and debit cards, and digital payments. Business clients can request invoicing.
How far in advance should I book?
Most appointments can be scheduled with 24–48 hours' notice, and same-day appointments are often available depending on location and time of day.
