Notary Fees in Colorado, Published Up Front

What we charge

Notarization is $15 per document, however many signatures and signers it involves. That is also the ceiling Colorado sets: C.R.S. § 24-21-529 caps a notary at fifteen dollars for each document attested, and says that fee has to cover every duty required to complete the notarial act on it. A document carrying three notarial certificates is one document, and it is $15.

What the law does not cap is travel. A mobile notary drives to you, and that time costs money. Colorado doesn’t set a ceiling on travel fees, but it does require the travel fee to be itemized separately from the notarial fee, and both to be disclosed to you before the notary performs the act.

So you get a written quote with both lines on it before anyone drives, and nothing is scheduled until you have approved that number. The notarial fee is fixed and small; travel is the variable that determines your total, which is why searching for a notary’s cost rarely turns up a single number. You will have both figures in hand before you commit to anything.

The fee schedule

Travel is the one line without a fixed number. Most of our service area comes in at the $50 base, and longer trips cost more than that. We work out the real number for your address, put it in writing, and confirm it with you before anyone gets in the car.

That base is the same at 7pm on a Tuesday as at 9am on a Saturday, inside our regular hours of 8am to 8pm, seven days a week. Those are preferred hours rather than a hard cutoff. If something can’t wait, ask anyway.

What a real appointment costs

One power of attorney. One document at $15, plus a travel base starting at $50. For most appointments in our regular coverage area, the total starts around $65.

A will with notary sections for two different people. Still one document, so still $15, plus the $50 travel base. The total starts around $65. A trust carrying three separate notarial certificates works the same way.

Five separate forms at the same kitchen table. Separate documents are billed separately, so that is five at $15, or $75 in notarial fees. One appointment carries one travel charge, not five, so the total starts around $125.

If you’re not sure how your paperwork counts, tell us what you have when you text and we’ll give you the exact total before we drive out.

What this covers, and what it doesn’t

We do general notary work: powers of attorney, affidavits, parental consent forms, vehicle titles, trusts, and the kind of document that needs a signature witnessed and sealed. Loan signings, apostilles, and remote online notarization each take a different commission or a different process, and we don’t offer them yet. If that’s what you need today, we’ll say so rather than take the job and figure it out.

Where we travel

Boulder, Longmont, Broomfield, Louisville, Lafayette, Erie, Superior, Arvada, and Westminster are all in our regular coverage area. Outside that list, ask when you text and we’ll quote you before confirming anything. Home, office, hospital, care facility, coffee shop: the setting doesn’t change the notarial fee. What changes the travel cost is how far we are going, and you’ll know the full total before we leave.

Payment and quoting

Every job gets a total quoted in advance, based on the documents involved and your address. You approve it before we start, and it doesn’t change afterward. We accept cash, all major credit cards, Venmo, and check, whichever is easiest.

Why the numbers are on this page

Colorado requires a notary to itemize travel separately from the notarial fee, disclose every charge before performing the act, and give you the fees in writing. Publishing them here means you have the numbers before you text, and the quote you approve is the number you pay.
