Are there any documents you can't notarize?

Yes, all notaries are prohibited from certifying copies of documents that are kept on file with a public office or agency. Certified copies must be obtained only from those offices.These include: court records, business formation and subsequent business documents, and certain vital documents (birth, death, and marriage certificates)However, if you are asked to notarize any of these documents, it most likely means they need YOUR affirmation that the document is a true copy, in which an affidavit can be signed under penalty of perjury that can then be notarized.

Are some differences between what a notary can notarize in Missouri versus Kansas?

As each state follows its own notary laws. Here’s a comparison highlighting key distinctionsGeneral SimilaritiesIn both Missouri and Kansas, notaries can perform these services: - Acknowledgments (confirming the signer appeared and acknowledged signing voluntarily). - Oaths and Affirmations (administering legally binding statements). - Jurat (witnessing the signing of a document under oath). - Certifying Copies (if allowed, typically for non-public documents). Unique to Kansas1. Remote Online Notarization (RON) - Kansas allows notaries to perform Remote Online Notarizations if they are authorized to do so. Missouri also permits RON, but its process might differ slightly in terms of technology and authorization requirements. 2. Special Requirements for Certifying Copies - Kansas explicitly limits certified copies to non-recordable documents (e.g., personal letters or private contracts) but prohibits notarizing copies of vital records like birth or death certificates. Missouri has similar restrictions but might have variations in enforcement. 3. Notarizing for Family Members - Kansas explicitly advises notaries to avoid notarizing for immediate family members, as it could be a conflict of interest. This is also a best practice in Missouri, but Kansas emphasizes it more strictly. Unique to Missouri1. Mobile Notary Services - Mobile notarizations are common in Missouri, though they are permitted in Kansas as well. Missouri has a broader recognition of mobile notaries for real estate and business transactions. 2. Apostille Facilitation - Missouri notaries frequently assist with apostille preparation, especially since the Missouri Secretary of State provides direct instructions for this. Kansas also allows this, but the process might differ in complexity. 3. Specialized Real Estate Transactions - Missouri notaries are often involved in specific real estate notarizations, such as deeds of trust and beneficiary deeds, due to state-specific requirements for property transactions. 4. SummaryWhile the core duties are similar, Kansas emphasizes Remote Online Notarization and stricter rules around certifying copies and family notarizations, whereas Missouri has broader involvement in real estate and apostille-related notarizations.
