NSA tip:1. Travel fees are separate from notarization fees.Fees for notarizations are regulated by state law. But travel fees are separate from the notarization fee, and should be treated as such. 2. Agree on travel fees in advance.Whether your state sets the amount Notaries may charge for travel or does not regulate travel fees, it's a good practice to agree upon the amount with the signer before the notarization date.3. Explain your policy.You should also let the signer know in advance your policy regarding charging for travel time and fuel expense if the notarization can’t be completed. 4. Request payment in advance (optional).One possible way to help avoid fee disagreements at the signing is to request payment of the travel fee in advance. That way, you are sure to receive payment for your driving time and fuel expenses even if the notarization cannot be completed.5. Record the travel fee.Some states required you to record the travel fee in your Notary journal. Required or not, It’s good practice regardless.#notaryprosnow #signingservice #notaryagency #notaryloansigningagent #mortgageclosing #titleagent #realestatetransactionservice #titleservice #closingteam #mobilesigning #titlecompanies #escrowofficers #notarysigning #notarypublic #mobilenotary #notary #notarysigningagent #notarylife #notarystamp #remoteonlinenotary #loansigning #notarybusiness #notaryfacts #signingservice #legaldocumentservices #loanclosing #notarize #notarypublicservices #nationalnotary #legaldocuments #loandocuments
