What Is a Correctional Facilities Notary?

When a person enters jail or begins a prison sentence after an arrest or conviction, they must often complete numerous official documents, including legal affidavits, powers of attorney, wills, deeds of trust, court documents, and other legal forms. A person who is incarcerated may also require new copies of official documents like birth certificates or marriage licenses as a part of their legal proceedings. Correctional facility notaries review these important documents and validate signatures. 

A correctional facility notary is a person who can perform correctional facility notarizations. The notary is an independent party operating as a contractor or on behalf of an organization that offers correctional facility notarial services. Incarcerated individuals or their representatives can hire a notary to visit the facility during open hours. A notary who has trained to offer remote online notarization (RON) can also offer virtual appointments.
​

Notarization is important for those in the criminal justice system. The documents they complete hold significant influence over their lives. A mistake or late submission could prolong their legal proceedings or sentence, so professional assistance is valuable. 
Who Can Perform Correctional Facilities Notarizations?
All notarizations, including those in correctional facilities, require the services of a state-appointed notary public. Notaries public are state-appointed individuals who have undergone the training and passed the exams the state requires. Most states also uphold requirements for ongoing training and testing at regular intervals. Notaries must meet general qualifications, such as being at least 18 years of age, having no felony convictions, and living in the state that appoints them. Each state's training and testing requirements may differ from the rest. 
​

Outside of technical qualifications, a notary should possess certain soft skills to work in correctional institutions. Working in this portion of the field requires tolerance and empathy. Those who succeed as correctional facility notaries show respect and compassion toward their clients and receive it in return.
