What ID do I need to bring for an affidavit notarization?

A government-issued photo ID — driver's license, state ID, passport, or passport card. The name on the ID must match the name on the affidavit.

Can I sign the affidavit before the appointment?

No. The whole point of notarization is that the notary witnesses your signature and administers the oath. Do not sign the document until you are in front of the notary.

Do you notarize affidavits in languages other than English?

The notarial act itself can be performed on a document in any language, but the notary must be able to communicate with the signer to administer the oath and verify identity. If the signer does not speak English, an interpreter may need to be present.

Notarize Affidavits in New York

An affidavit is a written sworn statement of fact. New York courts and government agencies regularly require notarized affidavits to verify facts, authenticate signatures, and support legal proceedings. A properly notarized affidavit carries evidentiary weight; an unnotarized one does not.
