Frequently asked questions.

A Notary Public is a legal professional authorized to witness the signing of documents, administer oaths and affirmations, certify true copies of documents, and authenticate documents for use domestically and internationally. At PDQ, our Notary Public can help with affidavits, statutory declarations, certified copies, travel consent letters, visa invitation letters, immigration forms, real estate documents, and more.

A Notarial Certificate is required when a document needs to be authenticated with the Notary Public's official seal. If a Notarial Certificate is required, the person named on the document must be present at the appointment with government-issued photo ID. If a Notarial Certificate is not needed, friends or family can attend with the original documents to be certified.

We notarize a wide range of documents including affidavits, statutory declarations, certified true copies, travel consent letters, visa invitation letters, immigration forms, real estate and financing documents, powers of attorney, personal directives, wills, insurance forms, and many more. If you're unsure whether we can help with your document, please contact us.

Please bring valid government-issued photo identification (such as a driver's license or passport) and the original documents that need to be notarized. If you need help with photocopying, we can assist you at the office.
