So, can a notary public notarize out-of-state documents? The short answer is yes, notary publics are legally allowed to notarize documents from any state as long the notarial act is conducted within the geographical boundaries of the notary's state of commission.
Yes. While using a remote notarization system/platform a notary public must adhere to all the requirements as set forth in the Michigan Law on Notarial Acts (MiLONA), as amended.
To become a notary in Michigan, you must: 1- Be 18 years of age or older. 2- Be a Michigan resident or maintain a place of business in Michigan. 3- Be a U.S. citizen or possess proof of legal presence. 4- Be a resident of, or maintain a principal place of business in, the county where you request your appointment.
One of the most common mistakes that notaries make is not printing or signing their name exactly as it appears on their notary commission.
The City of Houston's Municipal Courts Department (MCD) now offers Public Notary Services at the Herbert W. Gee Municipal Courthouse at 1400 Lubbock. We also offer access to Department of Public Safety (DPS) Driving Records at the Herbert W.
