What Clients Should Know Before Scheduling
- Be prepared to present valid ID: Have a government-issued photo ID ready, such as a driver’s license, state ID, or passport.
- Do not sign in advance: Most documents must be signed in the presence of the notary.
- Review your documents first: Make sure you understand what you are signing before the appointment.
- All signers must be present: Every person whose signature needs notarization must appear with valid ID.
- Be willing and aware: Signers must be alert, willing, and able to understand the document.
- Complete blank spaces first: Documents should not contain major blank sections at the time of notarization.
- Know the notarization type needed: If unsure, ask the document requester or issuing agency.
- Witnesses may be required: Some documents require additional witnesses separate from the notary.
- Have payment ready: Be aware of travel, after-hours, remote, or cancellation fees if applicable.
- Prepare for online notarization: For remote sessions, make sure you have a camera, internet connection, and email access.

Good Signs Notary Services is an independent notary provider. We are not attorneys and do not provide legal, tax, immigration, or financial advice. Clients are responsible for understanding their documents and seeking professional counsel when needed. Our services are limited to lawful notarial acts permitted under Washington law, including identity verification, witnessing signatures, administering oaths, and completing notarial certificates. For loan and real estate signings, we facilitate the signing appointment and identify signature locations, but we do not explain loan terms, interpret documents, or advise on whether to sign. Valid government-issued photo ID may be required. All signers must appear willing, aware, and competent. Service may be refused when required by law or professional standards. Fees and any travel or platform charges will be disclosed before confirmation. A notarization does not verify document contents, legality, or outcomes.
