N.D. Cent. Code § 44-06.1-28

Current through the 2023 Legislative Sessions

Section 44-06.1-28 - Fees to be charged for notarial acts - Penalty

A notary public is entitled to charge and receive not more than five dollars per notarial act. A notary who charges a fee exceeding that amount is guilty of an infraction. It is an infraction for any person other than the notary public to impose or collect any monetary fee, charge, or commission in connection with the notarization of any document. A notary may charge a travel fee when traveling to perform a notarial act if:

1. The notary and the person requesting the notarial act agree upon the travel fee in advance of the travel; and

2. The notary explains to the person requesting the notarial act that the travel fee is both separate from the notarial fee and neither specified nor mandated by law.
