Do I Need Two Forms of ID to Get Something Notarized?

No, you typically only need one valid ID that meets state requirements for notarization.
In California, a notary public is required to verify your identity using an acceptable form of identification. This usually means one government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, state ID, or passport.
If you’re meeting with a mobile notary, having your ID ready before your appointment helps avoid delays and ensures the notarization process goes smoothly. The California ID must be current or issued within the last 5 years if expired.
