As Public Servants, it is our duty to notarize a document that is requested for notarization.; however it must be a lawful request.
I ask you, if we are not to charge, why is it that in the CA Notary Law a maximum of $10.00 per signature is noted, and that it is against Notary Law to charge more than $10.00 per signature?
Like you, I have other sources of income, but that does not justify my notarizing documents at no charge.
Naturally you will do as you please; however, there is no official document that prohibits us from charging for our services.
