Notary Services

A notary public is an officer commissioned by the Michigan Secretary of State. Notarization on a document certifies that the person whose signature is entered on the document appeared before the notary, displayed valid identification and signed the document in the notary's presence. Documents sent out-of-state may require an embossed notary seal.

The City has several staff members who are notaries. A valid drivers license or State ID must be present when requesting notary services.

Notary services are offered free to City of DeWitt residents and businesses only.

Beginning July 1, 2017 Notary services for non-residents and non-city businesses will be charged $5.00 for the service.
