Notarial Fees & Charges

Generally, the minimum fee for notarising a document, such as certifying a copy document or authenticating a signature, is £65 per document.

Additional fees will be applied when the notary has to verify certain facts (such as capacity to represent a legal entity, or the ability to execute certain transactions), or where a notarial certificate needs to be drawn up.

In simpler cases, such individual notarial certificates may cost between £300-£600. However, additional fees may be incurred if the work is more involved, or the notary has to attend another office, or provide a home visit. This is dealt with on a case by case basis.

Discounted prices may be offered where there are in excess of 50 documents to be notarised in one sitting.

If you require us to arrange legalisation of the documents at the Greffe, we charge an additional one-off fee (minimum £65), however many documents there are, per trip to the Greffe. We would pay the legalisation fees upon submission of the documents to the Legalisation Office (who, from 1 January 2026, charge £45 per document for their standard service and £90 per document for their premium service –see Legalisation of Documents page) and invoice them as disbursements at cost.

All fees are due and payable upon completion of the notarial work. We reserve the right to charge interest at 10% per annum if payment is not received in full within one calendar month of the date of the invoice.
