Notarial Services
Notarial services are performed by appointment only.
You do not need to be a U.S. citizen to have a document notarized at the Consulate. Consular notarials are valid only for use in the U.S.
You must bring the documents to be notarized, proof of identity such as a passport or driver's license, and cash in U.S. dollars or the Mexican equivalent as follows: US$30.00, for the first seal, and US$20.00 for each additional seal of each transaction. There is no fee to notarize U.S. Government documents. You must arrange for your own witnesses, if necessary. The Consulate can only notarize signatures, and cannot vouch for the veracity of the content or the authenticity of a notarized document. The Consular officer has an obligation, however, to verify that the signer understands the document being signed, so may ask the signer questions about the document.
Information regarding authentication or legalization of documents, including how to obtain an apostille, is available on the internet.
