Florida Mobile Notary Pricing Explained

“How much does a mobile notary cost?” is one of the most common questions I get, and it makes total sense — nobody likes an open-ended answer when money’s involved. So let’s fix that. Here’s exactly how mobile notary pricing works in Florida, broken down piece by piece, no vague “it depends” hand-waving.

The Two Parts of Every Mobile Notary Bill

Mobile notary pricing has two separate components, and understanding the difference clears up almost every question people have.

1. The notarial fee. This is the actual cost of the notarization itself — the stamp, the seal, the legal act of witnessing your signature. Florida Statutes Chapter 117 caps this fee, and most notaries (including us) charge close to that maximum, currently $10 per signature or seal.

2. The travel fee. This covers the notary’s time and mileage to physically get to you. Unlike the notarial fee, travel charges aren’t capped by the state — they’re set by the individual notary based on distance and circumstances.

Add those two together, and you’ve got your total. Simple enough once you see it laid out.

What Travel Fees Actually Look Like

Travel fees generally scale with distance, and here’s how it breaks down for our service area on the Treasure Coast:

Distance	Area	Travel Fee	Per-Stamp Fee
0–15 miles	Vero Beach	$35	$10
15–30 miles	Sebastian, Fort Pierce	$55	$10
30–60 miles	Melbourne, Stuart, Jupiter	$75+	$10
60+ miles	Further out	Quoted individually	$10

So if you’re in Vero Beach and need two documents notarized, you’re looking at roughly $35 travel plus $20 in notarial fees ($10 per stamp) — $55 total, give or take. Simple math, no surprise line items.

What Bumps the Price Up

A few situations typically carry an additional charge, usually in the $25–$50 range:

• “Emergency” requests — anything booked with under two hours notice
• Hospital or nursing home visits — these usually take longer due to check-in procedures, visitor logs, and finding the right room
• After-hours appointments — anything after 8:00 PM

None of this is designed to nickel-and-dime you — it reflects the actual time and flexibility those situations require. A same-day hospital visit at 9 PM is simply a different job than a scheduled weekday appointment.

Why the Per-Stamp Fee Is the Same Everywhere

Because it’s set by state law, not by the notary. Whether you go to a bank, a shipping store, or book a mobile visit, the actual notarial fee is going to be close to that same $10 cap. Nobody’s marking that part up — it’s regulated. The only real variable across providers is the travel fee, which is where mobile notaries earn for the convenience they provide.

The Cheaper Alternative: Going Remote

Here’s a detail worth knowing before you assume a mobile visit is your only option: Remote Online Notary sessions skip the travel fee entirely, since nobody has to drive anywhere. You still pay the standard notarial fee, but there’s no mileage charge tacked on top. For a lot of everyday documents — affidavits, simple agreements, travel consent forms — it ends up being the faster and the cheaper option.

Easy Day Notary offers both, so you’re never stuck picking the more expensive route just because it’s the only one available.

Getting an Exact Quote

Every situation is a little different — number of documents, number of signers, location, timing — so the fastest way to get an exact number is to just ask. Contact us with the details, or go ahead and book a time, and we’ll confirm pricing before anything’s finalized. No surprise fees at the door.

Bottom Line

Mobile notary pricing in Florida boils down to two numbers: a state-capped notarial fee, and a travel fee that depends on distance and circumstances. Know those two pieces, and you’ll never be caught off guard by a bill again.
