Common Notary Invoicing Mistakes

If you’ve had chargebacks or slow pays, these fixes keep invoices clear and prevent disputes.

Mistake
How to fix it
Bundling regulated notary fees into one lump line confuses clients and can break fee caps.
List the notarial act count and price separate from other services, and note any rule that applies, and check local rules.
Leaving off your commission number or expiration makes the invoice look non-compliant and slows approval.
Put your commission number and expiration in the header every time and check local rules.
Write plain, specific descriptions with quantities and units so the work is obvious.

State due date, accepted methods, and any late or cancellation rules up front and check local rules.

Notaries Invoice FAQs

Bill for acknowledgments, jurats, loan signings, mobile travel, scanbacks, and after-hours. Price per stamp within state caps. Line items, markup, terms, clear answers.

How do you bill per notarization when a document needs multiple signatures?

Charge per notarial act within your state cap. List each act per signer. Example: 3 acknowledgments x $10 = $30. Rules vary: check local rules.

Can I charge a mobile travel fee for home or hospital visits?

Yes, as a mobile notary you can add travel, parking, and tolls if allowed. Keep it separate from the notarial act. Example: Travel 12 miles x $1.25 = $15; parking $6. Rules vary—check local rules.

What should a loan signing agent include on the invoice for a real estate package?

Use a flat signing fee plus adders: printing, scanbacks, courier, and wait time. Example: Loan signing $125; printing 200 pages @ $0.12 = $24; scanbacks $10; courier $18.

How do you handle no-shows or bad ID at the door?

Set a minimum service call fee and a nonrefundable travel charge. Example: Service call $25; travel $12. If you warned them in writing, you’ll avoid disputes.

What if the lender sends a redraw and I have to re-sign the package?

Bill a re-sign fee plus reprint and second trip. Example: Re-sign $75; printing 200 pages @ $0.12 = $24; travel $15.
