Letters

Notarized letters are often required for legal, business, or personal matters to prevent fraud and add credibility. Common reasons include:

• Consent Forms (e.g., for minors traveling without parents)
• Affidavits (sworn statements used in court)
• Proof of Residency
• Letter of Authorization (granting someone permission to act on behalf of another)

What is needed:

• The Letter should be Prepared – Ensure the document is complete before meeting with a notary.
• Do Not Sign in Advance – The notary must witness the signing.
• Provide Identification – The signer must present a valid ID.
• Notary Verifies Identity & Willingness – The notary confirms that the signer understands and agrees to the contents.
• Notary Completes the Notarial Certificate – This includes the notary’s seal, signature, and required wording.
