10 Notary Trivia Facts from Across the United States!

Notary services are essential for verifying legal documents, but did you know that notary laws can vary widely across different states? Let’s dive into 10 fascinating trivia facts about notaries in the U.S., and how our mobile notary service in Metro Louisville can help you with your notarization needs!

📌 California’s Ink Dilemma: In California, notaries are required to use either black or blue ink for their stamps. While Kentucky doesn't have this rule, our Louisville notaries always follow the best practices to ensure your documents are accepted everywhere. 🖋️

📌 Florida’s Wedding Perk: Florida is one of the few states where notaries are legally allowed to officiate weddings. Although this isn’t the case in Kentucky, we’re still here to help with your marriage license notarization to make your big day even smoother! 💍✨

📌 Texas Requires Bonding: In Texas, all notaries must be bonded to protect the public. This ensures that if any errors occur, there’s financial backing to correct it. Our mobile notaries in Louisville uphold the same professional standards, so you’re in safe hands. 🤝

📌 Virginia’s Digital Pioneers: Virginia was the first state to allow Remote Online Notarization (RON), paving the way for the digital notarization trend! Now Kentucky has embraced RON, and we offer this convenient service so you can get your documents notarized without leaving home! 🖥️📄

📌 North Carolina’s Witness Rule: In North Carolina, certain documents like wills must have two witnesses present along with the notary. While Kentucky laws don’t require this, our knowledgeable team will ensure every local requirement is met. 📝✔️

📌 Louisiana & Wyoming: Are currently the only two states permitting their Notaries to accept digital driving licenses as a form of identification.

📌 Arizona & Mississippi: Are the only two states that permit the use of a foreign-language interpreter during a notarization.

📌 Louisiana’s Unique Notary Laws: Louisiana follows a legal system based on French and Spanish law, meaning notaries there have more authority, often comparable to lawyers in other states. While Kentucky notaries don’t have these extra powers, we’re fully trained to meet your needs efficiently and accurately.

📌 Illinois Notaries Can’t Offer Legal Advice: In Illinois, notaries are prohibited from giving legal advice. The same rule applies in Kentucky, and we’re careful to stick to our role—authenticating documents and ensuring everything is properly signed and witnessed. 🛑⚖️

📌 Florida & California Expired ID's: Expired ID's in California and Florida can be accepted if the ID was issued within the last 5-years. 🏠
