Texas Notary Fees: What Customers Should Expect

Texas Notary Fees: What Customers Should Expect

Texas notary pricing has two parts: the state fee for the notarial act and any separate service fee a notary quotes for travel, timing, printing, or document handling.

NotaryHub is currently focused on Texas. Customers submit a request with the location, document type, signer count, and preferred timing. NotaryHub contacts notaries in that Texas area, and a notary may follow up directly to discuss fit and fee factors.


Texas Notary Fee Basics

Texas sets maximum fees for common notarial acts. Those caps apply to the notarial act itself, not to mobile travel or other services.

Notarial actTexas fee cap
Acknowledgment or proof$10 for the first signature, $1 for each additional signature
Oath or affirmation$10
Jurat$10
Certified copy$10
Deposition certificate$10
Online notarizationStandard fee plus the allowed online notarization fee

Always confirm the current fee rule with the Texas Secretary of State or the notary before the appointment.


Why Mobile Notary Quotes Vary

Mobile notary requests often include costs beyond the notarial act:

  1. Travel distance to the signer.
  2. Parking, tolls, or facility check-in time.
  3. Number of documents and signers.
  4. Printing, scanback, or shipping needs.
  5. Requested timing, including evenings, weekends, or short-notice requests.

A simple signature at a bank or shipping store may cost less than a mobile appointment because no one has to travel to the signer.


How NotaryHub Fits In

NotaryHub does not guarantee customer pricing and does not directly schedule appointments. It is a lead-generation service for Texas notary requests.

Here is the current flow:

  1. Submit a request with the service area and document details.
  2. NotaryHub contacts notaries in that Texas area.
  3. A notary may follow up directly if the request fits their service area and schedule.
  4. The customer and notary coordinate timing, fee details, and next steps directly.

Notaries get their first lead free, then subscribe if they want to continue receiving leads.


Questions To Ask Before You Proceed

Ask the responding notary:

  1. What is the total estimated fee, including travel?
  2. Which Texas notarial acts are included?
  3. Are printing, parking, tolls, or scanbacks extra?
  4. What payment methods do you accept?
  5. What should each signer bring?

Do not sign documents before the notary instructs you to do so. Most notarizations require the signer to appear before the notary and sign in the notary's presence.


Bottom Line

Texas sets fee caps for notarial acts, but mobile service costs depend on travel, timing, document complexity, and the notary's own service terms. NotaryHub helps Texans submit a request and route it to notaries in the relevant Texas area; it does not guarantee a specific price, schedule, or outcome.
