Raleigh, Cary and Apex: get it notarized online.
Wake County is busy, and finding a notary who fits your schedule can take time. Once online notarization opens, sessions will run on weekdays, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, and Saturday mornings, and most will take about 15 minutes once your document is approved.
Raleigh is home to many state offices and agencies, and documents headed to them often need notarizing. We review your document first, so you know it's ready before you pay.
The state capital, on your schedule.
Raleigh is North Carolina's capital and home to NC State University, and Wake County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the state, from Cary and Apex to Wake Forest and Holly Springs.
With commutes and packed calendars, finding a notary during business hours is hard. Online sessions will fit a lunch break or a Wednesday or Thursday evening, from home or the office.
Local tip: Sending a document to a state agency? Check the agency's instructions for notarization before you book. We'll review the notary certificate with you.

What if my document must be signed in person?
Wills, codicils, trusts and vehicle titles can't be notarized online. For those, use a local Wake County notary or visit our Charlotte-area office by appointment.
