Frequently Asked Questions About Mobile Notary Services in the Tri-County Area

What is a mobile notary and how does PA Travel Notary work?

A mobile notary is a commissioned notary public who travels to you instead of you going to a bank or office. With PA Travel Notary, you choose a convenient time and location in Bucks County or the surrounding tri-county area in Southeastern Pennsylvania—your home, office, hospital, coffee shop, or community space—and Frances Parker arrives on-site to verify your identity, witness signatures, and notarize your documents.


Which areas do you serve in the tri-county region?

PA Travel Notary serves Bucks County and the surrounding tri-county area in Pennsylvania. Common service locations include communities in and around Doylestown, New Hope, Warrington, Newtown, Yardley, Bensalem, and nearby towns. If you’re not sure whether your address is covered, simply reach out with your location and we’ll confirm travel availability and any related travel fee.


What types of documents can you notarize?

Frances handles a wide range of personal and business documents, including (but not limited to):

  • Powers of attorney

  • Wills and estate documents (client-prepared)

  • Healthcare directives and medical forms

  • Real estate and loan documents (when permitted)

  • Consent forms, affidavits, and sworn statements

  • Business documents, agreements, and contracts

If you’re unsure whether your document can be notarized, you can send a brief description (not legal questions) and we’ll let you know if it’s appropriate for notarization.


How much does a mobile notary cost in the tri-county area?

Pricing includes the state-regulated notary fee plus a mobile travel fee based on distance, time of day, and urgency. You’ll receive a clear quote before confirming your appointment, so there are no surprises. For larger signings or multiple documents, package pricing may be available.

Do you offer same-day or after-hours appointments?

Whenever possible, yes. PA Travel Notary focuses on flexible, on-site appointments across Bucks County and the surrounding tri-county area. Same-day, evening, or weekend scheduling is often available, depending on Frances’s calendar and your location. Urgent requests may include an additional convenience fee, which will be disclosed before you confirm.

What do I need to have ready for my notary appointment?

To keep your appointment quick and smooth, please have:

  • A valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID (such as a driver’s license or passport)

  • The complete documents that need to be signed and notarized (do not sign them in advance)

  • Any required witnesses, if your document calls for them (unless otherwise arranged)

Please note: Signers must be present, coherent, and willing, and must understand what they are signing for the notary to proceed.

Can PA Travel Notary provide legal advice or draft my documents?

No. As a notary public, Frances cannot provide legal advice, explain legal terms, or prepare your documents for you. If you need help understanding which document to use or what it should say, please consult an attorney. PA Travel Notary’s role is to verify identity, witness signatures, and complete the notarial certificate accurately.

Do you offer remote online notarization (virtual notarization)?

At this time, PA Travel Notary focuses on in-person, mobile notarization within Bucks County and the surrounding tri-county area. If you need virtual or remote options, please ask, and we’ll let you know what is currently allowed under Pennsylvania law and whether we can accommodate your situation.
