We all have to deal with important documents at some point. Sometimes, these contracts or other types of paperwork need to carry a notarial certificate or notary seal before becoming legal documents. That’s where a notarial officer comes in!
A Maryland notary completes the notarization process for legal documents and agreements. A notary provides notarial certificates or a notary’s seal when they have legally witnessed your signature, authenticated your identity, and ensured that you are signing documents of your own free will.
Otherwise, without these official acts of notarization, a document is just a piece of paper.
Notaries public can work with any document. A notary completes the notarization process for real estate agreements, business contracts, loans and mortgages, and other documents. They ensure satisfactory evidence of the document’s authenticity and your willingness to sign it.
In Maryland, notaries are licensed by the Maryland Secretary of State, and they carry a notary seal. Such a license is otherwise known as a notary’s commission, which grants them the right to practice in a given state.
The notary public commission has an ID number. You can use this number to identify the person as a notary in Maryland. They also carry a public seal that allows them to issue notarial certificates.
Every commission expires after a few years, so a notary public has to file a renewal application as they get closer to their commission expiration date.
Maryland notaries are well versed in the laws that govern the State of Maryland. In general, a notary works with you to notarize all types of notarial acts, such as:
- Jurats: This is a sworn statement that requires an affirmation or oath to complete. A jurat must be performed before a public notary and with valid proof of identity, such as a driver’s license, from all parties.
- Acknowledgments: It is recommended that you sign an acknowledgment in front of a notary, but you can also sign it beforehand. For the document to become official in the State of Maryland, you have to go to a notary and acknowledge that the signature on the document is yours.
In addition to the notary’s seal, you also have to get a Notary Certificate Form or Loose Certificate in the state of Maryland. This separate sheet acknowledges the document’s validity.
These forms are regularly used in the mortgage industry, especially when there are multiple signers in different locations or at different times.
While a notary can complete a notarial act in Maryland, they cannot give you legal advice that you can use in a federal, state, or circuit court. Also, if the notary has personal knowledge of your situation, it might introduce bias, so you might have to find another notary.
To verify that your notary is valid and that their commission is not close to its expiration date, you will have to spend valuable time and energy. With Superior Notary Services, a notary public from Maryland will come to you. They are vetted and verified, so the process is 100% hassle-free and convenient.
All you have to do is submit a form with your details, and a trained Maryland notary will contact you to start the process of notarizing a document.

According to the law, a Maryland notary in any county can only charge a maximum of $4 per notarial act for any document. This fee is valid for notarizing or validating a signed document in-person or remotely through communication technology.
If the notary has to travel to get the document notarized or provide a certificate of notarization, they can be reimbursed for business travel for a fee not exceeding $5.
Sometimes, you also need to notarize copies in addition to the original document. A Maryland notary can charge you $4 for the original document and an additional $1 for each notarial act on the copies of that document. Finally, a notary public in Maryland can charge $2 for certifying a copy of a record in their journal.
Failure to comply with these rules regarding fees results in penalties for any Maryland notary. At Superior Notary Services, we follow Maryland law and provide total transparency with our fees.
Maryland Notary Public Duties
Notaries in Maryland have three responsibilities:
- Authenticate the originality of the document
- Confirm the identity of the person signing the document
- Ensure the signature is given freely and without coercion
When you sign any document, you willingly enter into a legally binding agreement. These agreements could have a significant impact on your life, especially if they are a power of attorney document, medical directives, wills, or deeds.
Because of their importance, all these documents need to be verified by a notary who releases a certificate of notarization.
A notary public from Superior Notary Services will witness a document being signed and complete this process for you, all while following Maryland law. They will travel to wherever you need them to be. Your notary will then ensure that you are signing the document out of your own free will before they complete the notarial act.
If you are under oath in a court and need to verify the authenticity of an agreement, only a document that has gone through the notarization process is valid. If a notary was not present when you signed that document, the court might not accept it as a notarial act or a valid document.
Examples of documents that you should notarize include a Grant Deed, Rental Agreement, Quitclaim Deed, Surety Bond, Plea Form, Sworn Statement, and any other document related to court proceedings and business transactions.
If you’re in a rush or you don’t have time to wait until a notary in your county is free, then mobile notary services from Superior Notary Services are here for you. We will have a notary at your desired address right away so you can have your document notarized as quickly as possible.
