egcallis Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 A couple of years ago we bumped into a US notary. Anyone know her or how to contact her? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattoleriver Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 This subject comes up so often it ought to have a forum of its own. It is one thing to be legal and something entirely different to be acceptable to the recipient on the other end. It seems that many of the recipients will only willingly accept invalid options.

lcscats Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 Angus it is probably not legal in Mexico. It says legal in all 50 states. Last I checked Mexico was not a state. Only certain types of notaries employed by corporations and such can do international signing. This company is not one of them. According to treaty mexican notaries should be accepted but alas we have found that they are not in the US. Notaries are generally licensed by the state and only accept business in that state or other states with agreements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusMactavish Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 In all the years this service has been available not one person has said that the signature that was notarized was not accepted. Nary a dang one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nary a dang one. Yes true but I for one prefer a legal notary. You have dangerous advice. My advice comes from my wife who was a Notary, Mobile Notary and a Lawyer.

Every notary here has signed that they are in the home state they are licensed in. I am reluctant to trust a notary who lies and many do. I have witnessed them doing so many times. Yes international notaries exist but they are rare. Make sure they really are licensed to do international work. I have met one in my life at my employer a Fortune 100 company. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whipstock Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 I have had a document apostiied for the USA in the past. Kind of a joke, as someone who would forge a Degree would also forge a stamp saying it is real; No? This is from a within the US view but I found it informative: https://www.nationalnotary.org/notary-bulletin/blog/2015/07/notarizing-documents-from-other-countries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVGRINGO Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 That article does answer the questions: If you are in a foreign country, use a notary in that country. A US Notary can only notarize within his home jurisdiction in the USA. Simple enough, I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
