Can a Notary notarize a document that is dated with a future date on it.?

Answer 1

Legally, not they can't.

They can only add the Notary Stamp the actual day of signing.

Answer 2

I would NOT do that. I am a California Notary Public and I won't notarize anything pre or post dated.

It isn't worth the liability on the notary's part and isn't legal, either, by notary standards and laws (in CA at least...I'm sure in most other states as well).

The document MUST be fully executed before me, as I am a witness to that act.

Answer 3

whilst a notary notarizes a signature on a record, the notary might desire to witness the signature and notice an identification to instruct the identification of the signer (till they in my opinion be attentive to the signer). The notary provides his signature, his notary stamp, and the DATE the record replaced into signed in front of him to the record. If he fails to do those issues, the notarization is invalid, and the notary can lose his fee to be a notary public.

Answer 4

if it is someone that you are friends with, then maybe if the future date is not too far off, but most of the time you won't get it done.
also depends on a document. like a contract with a suspense date for example.
powers of attorney or other types of certificates are not valid with future dates anyway.
I have heard of someone notorizing marraige certificates with future dates, but unless you don't plan on going through with it in the next 30 days it is pointless, because they are good for 30 days to start with.
Only way to really find out is ask one.

Answer 5

No. The notary must date his attestation. One cannot attest to the future.

NO it has to be for the date it is stamped.In front of Notary.

Answer 7

Yes you can - you are notarizing the date of signature, not the date of the document.

Answer 9

Answer 10
