Arizona documents you can notarize online

Birth certificate, marriage certificate, notary stamp and a notary on a video call

Vital records

Birth, death, marriage and divorce records, and the forms used to request certified copies. Either a photocopy of both sides of your government photo ID or a notarized signature on the form, plus proof of relationship.

Most states let you order a certified birth, death or marriage record by mail, but the application has to prove who you are. Depending on the state, that means a notarized signature, a sworn statement signed in front of a notary, or a copy of your ID instead. A notarized application is also the usual route when you order a record for a parent, child or spouse, or ask the office to correct one.

Power of attorney

Forms that let someone you trust sign or act for you, often for a single permit or application. Arizona has no general statutory form for a financial power of attorney. A power of attorney must be signed by the principal, witnessed by one adult, and notarized (A.R.S. §14-5501(D)).

A power of attorney lets an agent sign for you, from a single vehicle title transfer to running your finances. Banks, title companies and county recorders usually refuse one that is not notarized, and some states also require one or two witnesses. Cities and counties often publish short authorization forms of their own, so an agent can pull a permit or file an application on your behalf.

Real estate

Deeds, easements, leases and other documents that transfer or record an interest in property. 7 form types across Arizona; the most common is Aviation Easement and Covenant Waiver Agreement (1 place).

Documents that transfer or record an interest in property, such as deeds, easements and lease memoranda, must be acknowledged before a notary before the county recorder will accept them. The notary confirms that the person signing is the owner named on the document. Some states also require witnesses on a deed, and recorders reject pages with the wrong margins or a missing legal description.

Permits and construction

Building permits, zoning and land-use applications, and contractor and owner paperwork for construction projects. 69 form types across Arizona; the most common is Conditional Use Permit Application (4 places).

Cities and counties ask for notarized signatures on construction paperwork so they know the property owner really approved the work. Typical examples are owner-builder affidavits, owner authorizations that let a contractor pull a permit, Notices of Commencement, zoning and variance applications, and lien waivers. A permit counter will usually reject an owner signature that is not notarized.

Business licenses

Applications and sworn statements for operating a business, selling goods or serving the public. 7 form types across Arizona; the most common is Amusement License Application (1 place).

Local business licenses often include a sworn statement: that the owner may legally work in the United States, that the business meets zoning rules, or that the details on an alcohol, vendor or occupational tax application are true. Those statements are signed in front of a notary. Employer E-Verify affidavits and immigration status affidavits for public benefits are common examples.

Affidavits and sworn statements

Written statements you swear are true, signed in front of a notary. 23 form types across Arizona; the most common is Affidavit of Posting (3 places).

An affidavit is a written statement you swear or affirm is true, signed in front of a notary who gives you the oath. The oath is what makes it a sworn statement rather than a plain signature: a false statement can be prosecuted as perjury. Residency, identity, ownership and one-and-the-same-person affidavits are the most common, and many local forms end with a sworn statement block.

Vehicles

Title, registration, bill of sale and odometer paperwork for cars, trailers and boats. 3 form types across Arizona, including 38-1306 Title Transfer Bill of Sale.

Some states require a notary on a vehicle title transfer, a bill of sale, an odometer statement or a duplicate title application, and others do not. Where it is required, the motor vehicle office will refuse the transfer until the seller's signature is notarized. Boats, trailers and manufactured homes usually follow the same rules as cars.

Courts and estates

Court petitions, estate and probate paperwork, and consent forms such as minor travel consent. 15 form types across Arizona; the most common is Affidavit of Person to Be Appointed Guardian or Conservator (1 place).

Court and estate paperwork often needs a notarized signature before a clerk will file it: small estate affidavits, probate petitions, guardianship and name change forms, and travel consents for a minor. The notary does not review the legal content. They confirm who signed and, for sworn forms, give the oath.

Private mailboxes, parcels and PS Form 1583 with a notary on a video call

USPS and mail forwarding

PS Form 1583, the form that lets a mailbox store or virtual mailbox service receive your mail. PS Form 1583 is a federal Postal Service form, so Arizona residents use the same version as everyone else. A Arizona driver's license or ID card works as the photo ID, and a lease, deed, voter card or vehicle registration as the address ID.

Before a Commercial Mail Receiving Agency, meaning a mailbox store or virtual mailbox service, can accept mail for you, the Postal Service requires PS Form 1583, Application for Delivery of Mail Through Agent. You sign it in front of the agency or before a notary public commissioned in any U.S. state, and you show two IDs: one with your photo and one that proves your address.

Can my Arizona document be notarized online?

Arizona accepts an online notarization performed by a notary from another state, so an Arizona document can be notarized online with Rush Notary. Rush Notary's Florida-commissioned notaries work over live video, and the result is recognized in Arizona. For a mailed birth, death or marriage certificate request, the Arizona Department of Health Services, Bureau of Vital Records rule (Notary or ID) makes a notary one of two ways to prove who you are in Arizona. Our Arizona requirements page walks through the details.

Arizona online notarization requirements
Which Arizona forms need a notary?

A power of attorney must be signed by the principal, witnessed by one adult, and notarized (A.R.S. §14-5501(D)). For certified vital records, the Arizona Department of Health Services, Bureau of Vital Records says: Either a photocopy of both sides of your government photo ID or a notarized signature on the form, plus proof of relationship.

Can I notarize an Arizona document online from another state?

Yes. Arizona has run remote online notarization since 2020 (A.R.S. §41-371 et seq.) and recognizes an acknowledgment taken under another state's law (A.R.S. §33-501).

How do I notarize an Arizona birth certificate application?

You can either enclose a photocopy of your ID or sign the application in front of a notary, and the notary route is the one to take if you would rather not mail an ID copy. Mail-in checklist on VS-11/VS-159: 'Clear photocopy of the front and back of your valid, signed government photo ID OR have your signature notarized.' The notary area is headed 'Applicable only if no government issued photo ID is available' and is an ACKNOWLEDGMENT ('who acknowledges that he/she signed the above document'). In every case you must also enclose proof of relationship/eligibility (birth certificates, certified court documents, marriage certificate, etc.), an original signature, a self-addressed stamped envelope and the fee. Government agencies submit an agency ID badge instead of a notary. A.A.C. R9-19-211(E)/R9-19-315(H) codify the 'notarized or photocopy of valid government-issued ID' choice. You can sign in a live video session with a Rush Notary notary, then mail the notarized page with the rest of the application; confirm with the Arizona Department of Health Services, Bureau of Vital Records that it accepts an online notarization first.
