When you need a notary on a Saturday to sign an important document, you can go to your local bank or library, some check-cashing stores and hotels, or a UPS Store, or you can contact a mobile notary to come to you.
Many places offer the service for free, but a mobile notary will charge a fee determined by the state.
We explain your options, including their fees and requirements, below.
