Question
Do I have to appear in person before a notary
public to get a document notarized?
3
Answer
Typically, yes. A notary public can be thought of
as a professional witness.
4
Answer
When a signature is to be witnessed, the person
signing the document must appear before the
notary public, and must prove his or her
identity, usually with government issued picture
ID such as a driver's licence or passport.
5
Answer
For documents such as certified copies, rather
than requiring a person to appear before a notary
public, an original document must be viewed by a
notary public.
