The State of Texas requires notaries to post their fees for the public and provide a written, itemized invoice for their notarial services. Notaries may charge additional service fees, but fees must be agreed upon prior to payment.
§406.024. FEES CHARGED BY NOTARY PUBLIC.
(a) A notary public or its employer may charge the following fees:
(1) for protesting a bill or note for nonacceptance or nonpayment, register and seal, a fee of $4;
(2) for each notice of protest, a fee of $1;
(3) for protesting in all other cases, a fee of $4;
(4) for certificate and seal to a protest, a fee of $4;
(5) for taking the acknowledgment or proof of a deed or other instrument in writing, for registration, including certificate and seal, a fee of $10 for the first signature and $1 for each additional signature;
(6) for administering an oath or affirmation with certificate and seal, a fee of $10;
(7) for a certificate under seal not otherwise provided for, a fee of $10;
(8) for a copy of a record or paper in the notary public's office, a fee of $1 for each page
(9) for taking the deposition of a witness, $1 for each 100 words;
(10) for swearing a witness to a deposition, certificate, seal, and other business connected with taking the deposition, a fee of $10; and

(c) Once every five years, the secretary of state shall adjust the fees provided under Subsection (a) by the amount that results from applying the inflation rate, as determined by the comptroller on the basis of the increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor, to the current fee amounts.

Total fees from our base location to your scheduled meeting location will be confirmed during the appointment confirmation call.

PREMIUMS AND OPTIONAL ADD-ON CHARGES
Premiums apply to after-hours, holidays and weekend appointments. Notarizations that take place in the office are only charged for the seal and any additional services requested beyond the notarization.
STANDBY AND WAIT TIMES
Things happen, and that's understood. $1/minute is the cost for standby and wait times beyond 15 minutes. After 20 minutes with no contact, the appointment is considered cancelled, but the service fee is still due and payable because the appointment timeslot was used and resources were spent to reserve the appointment. Wait-time beyond one hour will need to be rescheduled.
- Payment is due once service is rendered and fees are non-refundable.
- All fees are itemized on your invoice. Some fees are taxable. Some are not.
