A Nevada notary acknowledgment is a certificate that verifies the authenticity of one or more persons’ signatures on a document. This form, completed by a notary public, proves that the people who signed the document did so voluntarily and that the notary has confirmed their identities. Each person who signs must be physically present when the notary fills out the acknowledgment form.
In Nevada, a person commissioned as a notary public can perform notarial acts for a term of 4 years (NRS 240.020).
Is Online Notarization Legal in Nevada?
