Does signing my document with NotaryPro guarantee that it will be accepted?

At NotaryPro, we are proud of our greater than 99% acceptance rate on documents we commission by a Notary Public or Commissioner of Oaths. In the unlikely event that your document is not accepted, simply contact a member of our team and we will be happy to offer you additional support.

With the above in mind, it is important to understand what "notarizing" your document is and what it is not. 

There are two types of "notarizations" that we commonly perform.

1) Certified True Copy of an Original Document.  This type of signing can only be completed in person with a Notary Public. It is simply a photo copy of a document (such as a piece of ID, utility bill, education transcript, etc.) that has a "Certified True Copy" stamp provided by the Notary Public. This provides assurances that the copy is exactly the same as the original document. 

This type of service will not provide anyone with any assurances as to how the document was signed. 

2) Commissioning your document.  This is the most common type of service from a Notary Public or Commissioner of Oaths where we provide commissioning of your document.  This type of signing can be completed online or in person with a Notary Public or Commissioner of Oaths. When we are commissioning a signature on a document, we are attesting to the circumstances around how the document was signed as a Notary Public or Commissioner of Oaths.  This would typically include when, where and by whom the document was signed.  When commissioning your signature, we will also administer an oath or affirmation prior to your signing the document.  When signing any sort of document under oath, you are promising that everything in the document you signed is true with serious legal consequences if anything later turns out to be untrue. 

As part of the process of commissioning your document, we do not review the content or provide any advice with respect to the content of the document.  If you have concerns around the content of your document, it would be best to reach out to the organization you will be submitting the document to or a qualified legal professional.
