PRICING · EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 20, 2026
Transparent notary pricing
in Fort Lauderdale.
Every quote has the same parts: the Florida notarial fee, a travel fee based on distance, and any add-ons you agree to in advance. Weekends cost the same as weekdays.
Local mobile appointments start at $75: $65 travel within 10 miles plus one completed notarization at $10. Includes up to 20 minutes on site, printing up to 10 black-and-white pages, and my participation as a document witness when permitted, at no extra charge. Each additional completed notarial act is $10.
New rates apply to new quotes. Previously confirmed written quotes remain valid under their agreed terms.
01 / NOTARIAL FEES
Within Florida's legal limits.
Florida sets maximum fees, not required prices. Travel and other services are quoted separately.
| Service | Fee |
|---|---|
| In-person notarial act (acknowledgment, jurat, oath, copy certification) | $10 per act |
| Remote online notarial act (BlueNotary) | $25 per act |
| Marriage solemnization | $30 |
02 / MOBILE TRAVEL
By distance.
One-way driving distance from central Fort Lauderdale, confirmed for your exact address before booking. One travel fee per visit, not per signer or document. Includes up to 20 minutes on site. Tolls and paid parking are additional at cost, disclosed in your quote.
| One-way distance | Travel fee | With one $10 act |
|---|---|---|
| Up to and including 10 miles | $65 | $75 |
| Over 10 through 20 miles | $80 | $90 |
| Over 20 through 35 miles | $100 | $110 |
| Over 35 through 50 miles | $125 | $135 |
| Beyond 50 miles | By request | Custom quote |
03 / ADD-ONS
Only when they apply.
Each add-on is listed in your quote before you confirm.
| Add-on | Fee |
|---|---|
| Early or late start (before 8 a.m. or after 8 p.m.) | +$20 |
| Rush appointment starting within 4 hours of confirmation, subject to availability | +$25 |
| Major holiday, identified in your quote | +$30 |
| Hospital, rehab, nursing, assisted living or hospice visit: check-in, screening and 30 minutes total on site, replacing the standard 20 minutes | +$35 |
| Additional waiting time beyond the included time, approved before it accrues | $15 per 15 minutes |
| Additional independent witness I arrange (book 24+ hours ahead; subject to eligibility and availability) | $35 per person, per appointment |
| Black-and-white printing beyond the first 10 pages, arranged in advance | $0.50 per additional printed page |
My own participation as a document witness is included when the document and applicable rules permit it; I cannot notarize my own signature. A witness you provide carries no witness-service fee. Please do not send sensitive documents or ID images with an initial inquiry; we will agree on a suitable document-transfer method if printing is needed. Home visits do not incur the facility add-on just because the signer is homebound.
04 / SPECIALTY SERVICES
Flat and predictable.
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| Mobile VIN verification (HSMV 82042, Part B) | Travel fee + $10 per vehicle |
| Marriage ceremony at your location | $30 + travel fee |
| Apostille submission assistance by mail (eligible Florida documents) | From $75 per order + state fees + shipping |
| I-9 employer-authorized representative service, not notarization; no notary seal | Travel fee + $15 per employee |
| Remote online notarization | $25 per act; any separate platform or witness charges confirmed before the session |
Apostille assistance covers submission coordination, not an expedited in-person filing service. State fees are $10 per document, or $20 for Florida clerk-certified records. Shipping, any needed notarization and mobile pickup are separate, quoted before approval. Only the Florida Department of State issues the apostille; turnaround and acceptance are not guaranteed.
05 / LOAN SIGNINGS
For title & signing companies.
Billed to the hiring company. Includes one appointment with up to two signers, travel up to 30 one-way driving miles, up to 200 printed pages total across the signing and borrower copies, completed notarial acts and carrier drop-off using the hiring company's prepaid label. Notarial fees are itemized within the package, never added twice; the balance covers signing-agent services.
| Signing type | Fee |
|---|---|
| Refinance (one or two borrowers) | $150 |
| Purchase: buyer package | $175 |
| Seller package | $125 |
| HELOC / second mortgage | $125 |
| Reverse mortgage | $200 |
| Hybrid e-closing (wet-ink portion) | $125 |
| Loan modification or single-document signing | $100 |
Add-ons: scanbacks +$25 · travel over 30 through 50 miles +$25 · rush start within 4 hours of confirmation +$35 (replaces the general $25 rush fee) · printed pages over the 200-page combined allowance at $0.15 each · each additional signer beyond two +$15. Witnesses, special timing, parking and tolls, if applicable, are quoted separately. General mobile travel fees are not added to an included loan-signing trip. Return trips are quoted; a return solely to correct my own error carries no additional fee. Signing agent details →
EXAMPLES
What a visit
usually costs.
- A
Power of attorney at home, within 10 miles
Saturday at 2 p.m., booked ahead: one completed act $10 + $65 travel = $75. Includes up to 10 printed pages and my eligible witness participation.
- B
Deed requiring two separate notarial acts, over 10 through 20 miles
Two completed acts $20 + $80 travel = $100, with no timing or witness add-ons.
- C
Power of attorney and health care surrogate at a facility within 10 miles
One POA notarization $10 + $65 travel + $35 facility = $110, with eligible witnesses supplied by the family or my permitted participation. A standard Florida health care surrogate designation requires witnesses, not notarization. Add $10 only if a separate notarization is requested, appropriate and completed. Each additional independent witness I arrange is $35 per visit.
- D
VIN verification for one vehicle, over 10 through 20 miles
$10 vehicle verification + $80 travel = $90.
Florida rules: in-person notarial fee limits, online fee limits, and health care surrogate witnesses. Florida apostille requirements and state fees.
PRICING QUESTIONS
Fees, payment
and policies.
Why is the notary fee only $10 but my total is higher?
Florida limits the fee for each in-person notarial act to $10. The travel fee covers driving time, mileage and scheduling, and it's agreed separately before the appointment.
Is there an extra charge for weekends?
No weekend surcharge applies. Early or late starts, rush requests, holidays and any other applicable service add-ons are itemized before you approve the appointment. A same-day appointment booked more than 4 hours ahead does not incur the rush fee.
How do I pay?
Payment is due at the end of the appointment. Accepted payment methods are confirmed in your quote. For loan signings, the hiring title, escrow or signing company is invoiced.
What if the signing can't be completed?
No notarial fee is charged for an act that is not performed. If I have already traveled and the appointment cannot proceed because of missing ID, an unavailable signer or an incomplete document, the separately agreed travel fee remains payable only as disclosed and accepted before dispatch. Any other incurred service charge must also have been expressly agreed in advance.
Do you charge per signer or per document?
Per completed notarial act, not per page or stamp impression. A document may require no notarization, one act or multiple separate acts. I confirm the required acts from the completed document and instructions before quoting; each in-person act is $10.
