What this involves

Vehicle Title Notarization

These are the fastest appointments I do and I do not pad them. If you are selling a car on a Saturday afternoon and both parties are standing there ready, this takes a few minutes.

Both the seller and anyone else whose signature needs notarizing must be physically present with their own photo ID. I cannot notarize a signature for someone who is not there, no matter who vouches for them.

I cannot tell you which boxes to fill in, what the odometer disclosure should say, or whether your title needs a release of interest. Those questions go to the Department of Licensing or a licensing agency.

The other party present if their signature also needs notarizing

Common questions

Straight answers.

Can we meet in a parking lot?

Yes. Vehicle transactions often happen wherever the car is. As long as we have light and a flat surface, it works.

The buyer is not here. Can you still notarize?

I can notarize the signature of whoever is present with ID. I cannot notarize an absent person's signature.

Can you tell me how to fill out the title?

No. That is Department of Licensing territory, not notary territory. Their office or a licensing agent can walk you through it.

What identification do I need?

Current government issued photo ID showing your signature. Driver license, state ID, US passport, military ID, or tribal ID. If your ID is expired or your name has changed, call before the appointment rather than finding out at the table.

Can you tell me what my document means?

No. A Washington notary is not an attorney and may not explain, interpret, or advise on a document, or recommend whether you should sign. Questions about terms go to your attorney, loan officer, or escrow officer.
