Transparent Pennsylvania notary fees, administrative charges, travel fees, and real estate signing rates.
Notaries public may charge a clerical or administrative fee for services they have provided related to the notarial act, such as copying documents, postage, travel and telephone calls. These clerical or administrative fees are not set by the Department. Such clerical or administrative fees must be customary and reasonable for the geographic area and for the service rendered.
Customers should be informed prior to the notarization of a document if a clerical fee is being charged in addition to any notarial fees. The customer's receipt should itemize all fees charged by the notary. Clerical and administrative fees, if charged, must be separately itemized in the notary journal and included on the receipt.
