NO, a notary public CANNOT tell whether you need an Acknowledgement or a Jurat.
Notaries are not allowed to provide legal advice or make decisions about what type of notarization is required. Their role is to follow your instructions based on the document's needs, not to interpret or choose for you.
If you are unsure whether you need an Acknowledgement or a Jurat, you should:
- Check with the document issuer (e.g., the person or organization that provided the document.
- Consult an attorney or other legal professional who can advise you on the proper notarization.
The document may also specify which type of notarization is required, so reviewing it carefully can help.
An Acknowledgement is a type of notarization where the notary public verifies the identity of the signer and confirms that the signer willingly signed the document.
A Jurat is a type of notarization where the signer swears or affirms that the content of the document is true.
The key requirement for a jurat is that the document must be signed in the presence of the notary, and the notary administers an oath or affirmation to the signer.
Acknowledgement: Confirms your identity and willingness to sign.
Jurat: Requires you to swears or affirms to the truthfulness of the document and sign in the presence of the notary.
A notary public can witness signatures and verify identities but cannot provide legal advice. If you have questions about the content of a document or need legal assistance, you should consult an attorney.
NO, the notarization cannot be fully completed if only one signer is present when the document requires two signers.
All signers must personally appear before the notary at the time of notarization, as the notary needs to verify each signer's identity and witness their signature.
If both signers cannot attend the same appointment, you can schedule separate notarizations for each signer, but notary must meet with both signers individually to complete the process.
Absolutely. We frequently provide mobile notary services in hospitals, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities. Just ensure the signer is of sound mind and has proper identification at the time of notarization.

- Complete the Notarial Certificate: In California, each notarized document must include a notarial certificate, either a Jurat (for oaths or affirmations) or an Acknowledgement (for affirming identity). The notary will complete this section; however, you must tell the notary whether you need an Acknowledgement or a Jurat (notary public CANNOT tell whether you need an Acknowledgement or a Jurat. Notaries are not allowed to provide legal advice or make decisions about what type of notarization is required.

- Thumbprint (for each notarized document): Law requires you to leave a thumbprint in the notary's journal for each notarized document.
