1. You should always contact the jail before contacting a Notary Public to ensure they allow visitors.
2. You should always try to contact the inmate before the Notary visits the jail to ensure you have gone over why you are sending a Notary to them and what the document will entail. Notaries are not responsible for reviewing documents with inmates, as Notaries are not attorneys and can’t offer any legal advice.
3. If your document calls for a witness, you should note that many jailers will not act as a witness on your documents. Which means that you may have to pay additional fees if the Notary must bring a secondary witness. Oftentimes, the secondary witness will be another Notary, as most jails will only allow multiple people in to see an inmate if they are State officials (like a Notary or an Attorney).
4. Notaries are not allowed to create documents for inmates to sign, such as Release Forms, Power of Attorney Forms, Divorce Documents, etc, unless they are also a Licensed Document Preparer or an Attorney. You should always come in hand with your document when requesting a Notary. Notaries are not suppose to create a documents.
5. You should be able to either meet the Notary at the Jail where you are requesting to retrieve the document when the appointment is done, provide them a FedEx or UPS label to ship the document to you, or be willing to pay for a FedEx, UPS label (or courier fee) to have the Notary return the document to you.
6. Many jails will not allow inmates to sign with an Ink pen. This may be alarming; however, there are no Federal Laws that state a person’s signature must be in INK to be legally binding. If the Jail’s Notary services do not allow Ink signatures, this is not a fault of your Notary. Your Notary’s Signature and Stamp will always be in ink.
