Your Price. Your Zone.
No Surprises.

Call 978-424-4629 for a firm quote before booking. Custom pricing for multi-document, hospital and recurring appointments.

All rates subject to change. A firm quote is always provided before your appointment is confirmed. See our full Terms of Agreement.

Law firms and title companies may request direct billing. Contact us before your appointment to set up attorney direct billing. For all other clients, payment is due at the time of service.

Signature witnessing and acknowledgments. $45 per notarial act in office. This covers identity verification, completion of the notarial certificate your document carries, our record entry and the seal. Bring the document unsigned and a valid government-issued photo ID. If the document has no certificate wording at all, ask the receiving agency which act it requires before the appointment; we cannot choose it for you because that choice is legal advice.

Oaths and affirmations. $45 per signature in office. Affidavits, depositions and sworn statements are administered verbally, so every signer must appear and speak for themselves. Details are on our oath administration guide.

Vehicle title transfers. $45 per signature in office. Each seller named on the title signs, so bring every seller or book a mobile visit that gathers everyone at one table. Our vehicle title notarization guidance walks through the common pitfalls.

CORI and I-9 forms. $45 per notarial act or verification in office. Employers sending candidates to us regularly set up direct billing. For remote hires, we serve as an authorized representative for Form I-9 completion; see the I-9 service page for what the employer must send ahead.

USPS Form 1583. $45 per signature in office, and the form requires two forms of ID. Bring both. The Form 1583 guide lists acceptable combinations.

Copy certification. $45 per certification where Massachusetts permits it. Records held by public offices, such as vital records, are certified by the issuing agency, not by a notary. Check the copy certification page before you book so you are not paying for an appointment the document cannot use.

Notarized translations. The translator’s fee is separate and billed by page or by document. Our notarization fee is $45 per certification signature. The certified translation page shows how the two fees combine for a typical USCIS packet.

Apostille support. Notarization at our office is $45 per act. The apostille itself is issued by the Commonwealth, and state fees, processing and courier costs are quoted as a package on the apostille service page. International deadlines are unforgiving, so bring the destination country and due date to the first call.

Loan signings. $179.95 flat in office with 2 seals included. Mobile closings are quoted by zone and package, starting at $150 for refinances. Title companies and lenders can arrange direct billing and scan-back requirements in advance.

Hospital, bedside and senior living visits. Quoted individually because facility access, timing and witness needs differ case by case. The zone rate is the starting point and the written quote is the commitment. Compassionate scheduling comes first; if the signer cannot demonstrate awareness at the appointment, we reschedule rather than proceed.

Online notarization (RON). Priced per act and platform; the online notary page has current details and eligibility rules.

The service. A standard notarization, an in-office loan signing package and apostille support are priced differently because they involve different amounts of time, review and follow-through. The tables above show the base rate for each. If you are not sure which service your document calls for, describe it on the phone and we will quote the right one. The receiving agency, attorney, lender or court is the authority on which notarial act your document requires. We perform the act you request.

The location. In-office appointments at 1215 Main St, Unit 115 in Tewksbury are billed per notarial act at $45. Mobile visits are billed as a flat zone rate of $125 to $278 that already includes round-trip travel and 2 notary seals.

The count. Fees apply per notarial act or signature, not per document and not per page. A 40-page trust with one signature line for one signer is one notarial act. A one-page vehicle title with two sellers is two.

The timing. Standard weekday appointments carry no premium. Same-day bookings under 4 hours notice add $25. Weekend and evening appointments carry a surcharge that we state in your written quote before you commit.

Worked example 1. One durable power of attorney signed at our Tewksbury office: one notarial act, $45, usually 15 to 20 minutes.

Worked example 2. A vehicle title transfer at our office with two sellers signing: two notarial acts, $90 total.

Worked example 3. An estate planning packet signed at a Lowell home in Zone II: the $199 flat rate covers travel and the first 2 notary seals. If the packet needs 4 seals in total, the 2 additional signatures are $35 each, so the confirmed quote is $269.

Worked example 4. The same Lowell visit booked for the same afternoon adds the $25 same-day surcharge: $294, confirmed in writing before we dispatch.

Every appointment gets a firm written quote before you book. The number we quote is the number you pay unless you add documents or signers at the table, and if that happens we tell you the new total before we proceed.

Choose the office when you have one or two documents, you can travel, and weekday daytime hours work for you. At $45 per notarial act, a single power of attorney or CORI form costs less than lunch for two, and most office visits are finished in under 20 minutes. Appointments keep the schedule moving, so call or book before you drive over.

Choose mobile when the signer cannot travel, when several people need to sign in one place, or when the document belongs to a moment that cannot move: a hospital bedside, a senior living community, a business closing with staff on site. One Zone II visit at $199 with 2 seals included is regularly less expensive than coordinating three schedules, transport and time off work.

Choose online notarization when the receiving party accepts remote online notarization and you need speed over everything else. Our online notary page explains what RON handles well and where an in-person notarization is still the safer path.

Still weighing it? Call 978-424-4629 and describe the situation. We will tell you plainly which option costs less for your case, and you can schedule an in-office notary appointment or a mobile visit in the same call.

Banks and credit unions often notarize for free for their own account holders. The trade-offs are branch hours, no witnesses on staff, and branch policies that let staff decline documents they are not comfortable with, which happens regularly with estate and international paperwork.

Shipping and print stores offer notary service at some locations, with per-signature fees and availability that vary store to store. Calling ahead is essential, and witnesses are usually your problem to solve. Our guides on USPS notary options and FedEx notary options cover the details.

Online notarization platforms typically charge $25 to $50 per notarial act. They are fast for simple, RON-eligible documents and unsuitable for anything the receiving party insists on seeing signed in ink.

Law offices notarize as part of legal work, with the cost folded into legal fees. If you already have an attorney drafting your documents, ask whether notarization is included.

Where we fit. $45 per notarial act in office, witnesses available, Arabic and French language service, same-day availability most days, and mobile zones that reach the whole Merrimack Valley. You get a firm written quote every time, and the current rates are always on this page. When you compare, compare the whole visit: fee, witnesses, languages, timing and whether the notary will actually take on your document.

1. The document type. Power of attorney, title, affidavit, loan package, translation certification. You do not need legal vocabulary; describing the paperwork in plain words is enough for us to price it.

2. The number of signers and signatures. Fees run per notarial act, so an accurate signer count is the difference between an exact quote and a revised total at the table.

3. The location. Our Tewksbury office for the $45 per-act rate, or the town and setting for a mobile visit so we can confirm the zone. Hospitals and care facilities also need access details.

4. The deadline. Standard scheduling costs nothing extra. Same-day under 4 hours notice adds $25, and weekend or evening timing carries a stated surcharge.

5. Witness needs. If the receiving agency requires witnesses, say so up front. We arrange them, and early notice keeps the appointment to a single visit.

One policy note: fees are nonrefundable within 24 hours of the appointment, so reschedule early if plans move. Rates on this page are current as of mid-2026 and this page is the source of record; if a rate ever changes, it changes here first.
