Notary Public in Florida

Browse 379 cities in Florida to find a notary public near you.

Florida notaries are appointed by the Governor and serve a 4-year commission. The state is a national leader in remote online notarization (RON) — Florida was among the first states to authorize it and has one of the most mature RON markets in the country. The fee cap is $10 per signature. Florida's massive real estate market combined with a large retiree population creates consistent demand for notaries specializing in real estate closings, estate planning documents, and loan signings, from Miami-Dade to the Panhandle. Florida requires a $7,500 bond and a training course, though no formal exam, to become a notary.

Is this notary really commissioned?

Anyone can claim to be a notary. Before you rely on one for an important document, it costs nothing to check that their commission is real, active, and hasn't expired.

Florida notaries are commissioned by the Florida Department of State, which provides a free public commission lookup.

What you can legally be charged

As of July 2026, Florida law caps the fee a notary can charge for a standard notarial act at $10 per signature ($25 for a marriage ceremony). A notary who charges more than the legal maximum for a standard act is breaking the law — you're entitled to ask what they charge before they begin.

What to expect

  • Bring a valid, government-issued photo ID — the notary can't proceed without one.
  • Your notary is required to record the transaction in a journal — expect to sign it and provide some basic details.
  • Every document is marked with the notary's official stamp or seal, confirming the notarization is complete.
