Are we allowed to notarize quitclaim deeds? If yes, is the fee the same as any other document? — S. C., Ohio

As a Notary Public in Ohio, you may notarize a quitclaim deed and charge the same fee as any other notarization you perform.

Hotline answers are based on the laws in the state where the question originated and may not reflect the laws of other states. If in doubt, always refer to your own state statutes. – The Editors

Hello. Bulletin 135 (https://www.in.gov/idoi/files/Bulletin-135-Title-Insurance-License-Requirements.pdf) issued by the Indiana Insurance Department states that anyone — including a Notary Signing Agent — who conducts a real estate closing must hold a title insurance producer license.
