When Are Notary Stamps Used?

Notary rubber stamps are used by notary officials and in many states throughout the US. A notary stamp is required by law. At XpressStamp.com we advise all customers to check with their state regulations prior to ordering the notary rubber stamp. This is because the information required on the stamp will vary according to state; indeed some states will not require a notary stamp to verify a document or the personnel. This leaves many people to question, 'what exactly is the role of a notary ?' And 'why is a notary rubber stamp required?

• A notary will normally be appointed by the top official Representative of the State, be it Governor, Secretary or Treasurer.

• A notary is a person recognized as an official representative in overseeing certain transactions. A great many legal and business dealings require an impartial witness or third party; this is the service a notary will provide.

• Having a notary or impartial witness brings an added integrity to business operations. In order to display the presence of a notary, notary stamps are most commonly used.

• A notary's role of impartial witness is most often invoked to reside over the signing of official documents including a last will of testimony, the sale of property deeds and various other business transactions.

• In order for the notary to add their notary stamp seal to a document, their client (i.e. the person signing the document) must prove their identity to the notary. This may require the person signing the document to provide a range of official documents before the notary.

• Upon witnessing the signing of an official document or performing other notary duties, the notary will compose a 'notarial certificate'. This certificate will attest to the notary's presence at the signing of the document. It will also state that all parties involved were of sound state of mind and were signing of their own will. Once this certificate is composed, the notary will sign and seal the document. To 'seal' the document is to apply the notary rubber stamp. Although these notary rubber stamps are required in a majority of the US states, they are not mandatory in every state. This certificate will be present at the end the signed document or will accompany it as a separate paper.
