Common Questions About Notary Services in Chapel Hill

How much does a mobile notary cost in North Carolina?
Mobile notary fees in North Carolina typically include the state-regulated notarization fee plus a travel fee based on distance. Contact us for a specific quote based on your location and the number of documents that need notarization.
What do I need to have ready for my notary appointment?
You will need a valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID such as a driver's license, passport, or state ID card. The documents to be notarized should be unsigned - you will sign them in the presence of the notary. All signers must be present.
How do I get an apostille in North Carolina?
The apostille process involves notarizing the document (if required), then submitting it to the North Carolina Secretary of State for authentication. Thrive Carolina handles this entire process for you - from notarization through filing and return of your authenticated documents.
Can I get a mobile notary the same day?
Yes, we offer same-day mobile notary appointments when available. We recommend scheduling in advance when possible, but we understand that urgent situations arise and will do our best to accommodate last-minute requests.
How long does it take to get an apostille in North Carolina?
Most North Carolina apostille requests should be planned around a 2-4 week processing window, with additional time possible for mailing, return shipping, document corrections, or periods of high demand. For mailed submissions, the North Carolina Secretary of State states that mailed authentication requests generally take about 5 business days longer than hand-delivered documents. Turnaround times are estimates and are not guaranteed. Processing times are determined by the North Carolina Secretary of State and may change based on current demand, document requirements, submission method, and shipping. Last reviewed: August 2026.
