Read the first 7 Schedule of Maximum Allowable Fees flashcards as text

  1. A document requires three separate acknowledgments on the same page. Under Arizona law, what is the maximum total fee the notary may charge?

    Answer: $30 total — $10 per acknowledgment

    Arizona's fee schedule is per notarial act performed, so three acknowledgments allow a maximum of $10 × 3 = $30.

  2. An Arizona notary who is a public employee performs notarizations during work hours for members of the public. Under A.R.S. § 41-313, what fee restriction typically applies?

    Answer: Their employer may prohibit them from charging fees while on public duty

    Government employers may require notary-employees to perform notarizations as part of their duties without collecting personal fees.

  3. For a remote online notarization (RON) performed by an Arizona notary, what is the maximum allowable fee per notarial act under Arizona law?

    Answer: $25

    Arizona law allows notaries performing remote online notarizations to charge up to $25 per notarial act, higher than the $10 in-person maximum.

  4. A signer asks an Arizona notary to certify a true copy of a five-page private document. What is the maximum fee the notary may charge for this service?

    Answer: $50 — $10 per page

    Arizona's fee schedule permits up to $10 per page for certified copies, so a five-page document allows a maximum of $50.

  5. Which of the following actions is permissible under Arizona's notary fee rules?

    Answer: Waiving the fee entirely as a courtesy to the signer

    A notary may always choose to charge less than or waive the maximum fee; only exceeding the statutory maximum is prohibited.

  6. A notary charges $12 for a jurat in Arizona, claiming the extra $2 covers the cost of the notary seal impression. Is this permissible?

    Answer: No, the $10 maximum for a jurat is all-inclusive and may not be supplemented

    Arizona's statutory maximum of $10 per jurat is the total allowable charge; notaries cannot add surcharges for supplies or overhead.

  7. Under Arizona law, if a notary and signer agree in advance that the notary will travel to the signer's home to perform an acknowledgment, may the notary charge a travel fee in addition to the $10 notarial fee?

    Answer: Yes, provided the travel fee is agreed upon in writing before travel

    Arizona notaries may charge a separate travel fee beyond the statutory notarial fee, provided it is agreed upon with the signer beforehand.
