If you want to notarize a document or letter without a notary section, you have some options. For example, a notary public might be able to attach a loose certificate to it. On the other hand, the notary can also write a notary section with hand on the document or letter itself.
Once you realize that the notarial certificate is missing from the document, inform the signer and explain why it is necessary and that you must add it in order to continue. Ask if the signer knows which notarial act they want you to perform.
You may notarize a document that does not have pre-printed notarial wording as long as the signer tells you what type of notarization is needed. You would then attach the appropriate certificate wording.

Under California law, every signer must personally appear before you at the time of the notarization. This means that you and the signer must both be physically present, face to face in the same room, when the notarization takes place.
As a notary public, if you are presented with a document to notarize, and the document does not include a notarial certificate, you may not proceed until the signer adds a notarial certificate to the document or chooses one from your notarial certificate inventory.
The bottom line (no pun intended), which is the signature line, is that without a signature, there can be no Acknowledgment or Jurat on a particular document. An Oath or Affirmation are the only Notary Acts you can do without a signature.
