Frequently Asked Questions
What does a notary do?
A notary public witnesses document signings, administers oaths, certifies copies, and authenticates documents for legal use. In Quebec and BC, notaries can also provide legal advice and draft legal documents.
How much does a notary cost in Richmond?
Simple notarizations (per signature) cost $20-$75. Real estate closings run $500-$1,500+. Wills and powers of attorney typically cost $200-$500. Mobile notary services usually add a travel fee of $50-$150.
What is the difference between a notary and a lawyer?
In most Canadian provinces, notaries handle document authentication and witnessing, while lawyers provide legal advice and representation. In Quebec and BC, notaries have broader powers and can draft legal documents like wills and real estate contracts.
Do I need a notary or a commissioner of oaths in Richmond?
Commissioners of oaths can administer oaths and take affidavits — they are more limited and less expensive. If you need document authentication, certified copies, or international documents, you need a notary public.
Can a notary help with international documents?
Yes. Notaries can authenticate documents for international use, including apostille services (through Global Affairs Canada), embassy legalization, and certified translations.
What do I bring to a notary appointment?
Bring valid government-issued photo ID (passport or driver's licence), the document(s) to be notarized (unsigned), and any supporting documents. For real estate, bring your purchase agreement and mortgage details.
