Each state sets fees Notaries may charge to perform notarial acts. Notaries may charge any fee (or none) up to the maximum allowed under their state fee schedule. Below is a chart listing each state's fee schedule for acknowledgments, jurats and other special notarial acts.
* These fees are temporary and will cease to apply when the emergency order for remote notarization expires.
** There's a $15 flat fee for performing these notarial acts for the grantors in the transfer of real estate (regardless of the number of services performed in a single transaction).
† While you may charge a travel fee, the signer must agree to it in advance.
‡ Fee per signature. For Guam, acknowledgments and jurats are $10 for the first two signatures and $8 for each additional signature.
