County recorders will reject documents with notarization errors—dates, signatures, venue, or acknowledgment language—rendering your document invalid for recording. Correction depends on severity: minor errors in the certificate might be fixed with corrections initialed by the notary; major errors usually require re-notarization with both parties present.

Common Notary Mistakes That Cause Rejection:

• Incorrect date (wrong day, month, or year on notarial certificate)
• Missing signer name or title on acknowledgment
• Notary failed to include their commission number or expiration date
• Venue listed incorrectly (county/state mismatch)
• Notary signature missing or illegible

🔧 How to Fix It:

If the error is typographical on the certificate, the original notary may correct it by striking through and adding the accurate information, then initialing and dating. However, most county recorders require re-notarization to ensure legal compliance. Contact your title company or the recording office immediately to determine the specific fix needed for your document.

🚀 Expedited Re-Notarization:

Mobile notaries offer same-day or next-day re-notarization appointments throughout Henderson and Downtown, preventing further delays. Professional notarization services ensure accuracy on first attempt, saving time and frustration.
