As a person who needs a document notarized, there are several steps you can take to prepare for a smooth notarization. 

As the signer, you must tell the Notary what type of notarization you need. Notaries can describe what the primary notarial acts are, but they cannot recommend one over another. 

Generally, a document must be 100% complete for a Notary to perform a notarization. Make sure there aren't any blank spaces on your document before you meet with a Notary.

Checking and verifying the signers identify is a critical step in performing a notarial service. Be sure that the ID you bring to the notarization matches your name shown on the document. 

Identification validation can be challenging, but it is a necessary step to safeguard against fraud. 

So the next time you need a document notarized, remember you will need:

• Valid ID  

• Willingness & Knowledgeable Attitude  

• Ability to Communicate 

• Completed Documents
