## Mobile Notary Fee Breakdown

Mobile notary costs consist of two main components: a **per-signature fee** regulated by your state, and a **travel fee** set by the individual notary. Understanding both helps you budget accurately. Not sure what a mobile notary does? [Read our complete guide to mobile notaries](/what-is-a-mobile-notary).

### 1\. Per-Signature Fee (State-Regulated)

Every state sets a maximum amount a notary can charge per notarial act (acknowledgment, jurat, oath, etc.). These range from **$2 in some states to $25+ in others**. The notary cannot charge more than their state's maximum, though they can charge less.

Fee Range Example States Per Signature 

Low Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska $2–$5 

Medium California, Texas, New York $5–$15 

High Florida, Colorado, Nevada $10–$20 

Premium Alaska, Hawaii $15–$25+ 

### 2\. Travel Fee (Set by the Notary)

Since mobile notaries come to you, they charge a travel fee to cover their time, fuel, and vehicle costs. This is **not regulated by the state** and varies widely:

-   **Local (0–10 miles):** $25–$50
-   **Standard (10–25 miles):** $50–$75
-   **Extended (25+ miles):** $75–$150+
-   **After-hours / Weekend surcharge:** +$25–$50
-   **Same-day / Emergency:** +$25–$75

## Loan Signing Agent Fees

Notary signing agents who handle real estate loan closings charge differently than general mobile notaries. A typical **loan signing fee ranges from $75 to $200 per appointment** and includes:

-   All notarizations in the loan package (often 5–15 signatures)
-   Document printing and handling
-   Return shipping via FedEx or UPS
-   Travel to the signing location

Pro Tip: Always Confirm Fees Upfront

Ask for a complete fee breakdown before scheduling. A reputable mobile notary will provide transparent pricing with no hidden charges. [Compare mobile vs. traditional notary costs →](/mobile-notary-vs-traditional-notary)

## What Affects Mobile Notary Pricing?

Several factors can influence the total cost of a mobile notary appointment:

-   **Distance** — Longer travel means higher fees
-   **Number of signatures** — More notarial acts = higher per-signature costs
-   **Time of day** — Evening and weekend appointments often have surcharges
-   **Urgency** — Same-day or emergency service costs more
-   **Document complexity** — Loan signings cost more than simple notarizations
-   **Location type** — Hospital or jail signings may incur additional fees

## How to Save on Mobile Notary Fees

1.  **Compare multiple notaries** — Use [MobileNotaryNet](/find-notary) to compare credentials and contact several notaries for quotes
2.  **Schedule during business hours** — Avoid after-hours surcharges when possible
3.  **Bundle appointments** — If you need multiple documents notarized, do them in one visit
4.  **Ask about flat rates** — Some notaries offer package pricing for multiple notarizations
5.  **Check your state's fee schedule** — Visit our [education center](/education) for state-by-state notary fee guides
