How to Notarize a Document at PostNet

PostNet will help approve all your important documents in three easy steps.

  1. Call ahead of time. Notary services are available at select PostNet locations. Call your local PostNet center to verify that an authorized notary public can stamp your documents. 
  2. Schedule an appointment. Save time and make sure that your notary is available when you need them. Secure a time slot at the notary near you to avoid waiting in line. Appointments fill up fast, so reserve your spot as soon as you can.
  3. Bring everything you need. When you show up for the appointment, make sure you have everything necessary to notarize the documents.

Here are some things to keep in mind about IDs:

  • Every signer needs their own ID.

  • Valid IDs have your photo, description and signature.

Once the notary process is complete, signers have the option to mail their documents. PostNet will ship notarized documents wherever they need to go! Our full line of services lets you sign, notarize and mail documents all in one trip.

Frequently Asked Questions about Notary Services

Learn the basic facts about notary publics at PostNet.

  • What is a notary?
    A notary is a neutral third party that stands witness as you sign important documents. A notary’s main job is verifying each signer’s identity to avoid fraudulent signatures. They can also answer any questions you might have about the document before signing it. Notaries make sure the signer is informed and agrees to the document’s terms.
  • Why do some documents need a notary public’s signature?
    Some documents have to be notarized because they handle important matters like business ventures, legal guardianships and property transfers. Governing bodies won’t accept these documents until a notary public confirms they’re authentic, accurate, and completely filled out.
    A notarized document will contain a stamp or seal that only notary publics are allowed to use. Approximately 1.25 billion documents in the United States receive a notary stamp every year. People who review documents for authenticity look for this special stamp.
  • Where can I have a document notarized?
    A notary public is available at many participating PostNet locations. Call your local PostNet center to confirm that they have a notary public on staff.

    The notary process is the same, regardless of whether the original document is digital or on paper. If you need an email notarized, your local notary public will ask you to print a copy of the email. In order to have it legally notarized, all documents need a signature with pen and ink.
