Notary Fees in Ohio — What You Will Actually Pay

Notary pricing has two parts: the per-signature notarization fee, which Ohio law caps, and the mobile travel fee, which we quote before we leave. That is the whole picture. There are no hidden line items at the door.

The Per-Signature Fee

Ohio law sets a statutory maximum a notary may charge per notarized signature. That cap applies whether you walk into a storefront or we drive to your kitchen table. For most general signings — POA, affidavit, deed, consent letter — the fee is small and depends on how many signatures the document actually requires.

For loan signings, the customary structure is a single signing-agent fee rather than a per-signature count, because dozens of pages need notarization.

The Travel Fee

The second part is the mobile travel fee. It reflects the time and distance involved in coming to your home, hospital, office, or facility. The quote depends on:

— The destination relative to our base in Waynesville — The time of day (after-hours adds to the quote) — How urgent the appointment is — Whether printing, scanbacks, or extra logistics are involved

We quote the travel fee on the phone before scheduling so you can decide before we leave.

What Changes the Total

A few situations move the number:

— Multiple signers at different addresses — Same-day or overnight urgency — Hospitals or senior communities with parking or check-in delays — Documents that need scanbacks or printing on-site — Loan signings, which have their own customary structure

None of those are surprises. They are part of the upfront quote.
