Preparing for a notary appointment is simple—but having the right items ready can save time and avoid delays.
If you’re using a mobile notary in Hampton or the North Hills of Pittsburgh, here’s everything you need to bring.
🪪 1. Valid Photo Identification
The most important requirement is a valid, government-issued ID.
Acceptable IDs include:
Driver’s license
State-issued ID
Passport
👉 The name on your ID must match the name on the document.
✍️ 2. Unsigned Documents
Do not sign your documents ahead of time.
The notary must witness the signing in order to properly notarize the document.
👥 3. All Required Signers
Anyone who needs to sign the document must be present at the time of notarization.
👉 The notary cannot notarize a signature for someone who is not there.
👀 4. Witnesses (If Needed)
Some documents require witnesses in addition to a notary.
👉 Check ahead of time:
Whether witnesses are required
How many are needed
If you’re unsure, it’s always okay to ask before your appointment.
🧠 5. Awareness and Willingness
The signer must:
Understand what they are signing
Be willing to sign without pressure
A notary cannot proceed if the signer is unable to communicate or appears unwilling.
📍 Mobile Notary Convenience
If you’re using a mobile notary in the North Hills Pittsburgh area, you can have your documents notarized at:
Your home
Workplace
Hospital or care facility
This makes the process quick and stress-free.
