New Notary Rates

The rates (per signature, certificate, etc.,) vary by state. Texas has approved a rate increase (HB255). The rate increases to $10 effective September 1, 2023.

Effective September 1, 2023, the notary is allowed to record the expiration date of the ID presented. The full bill is not displayed in the graphic but is shown here.
