Frequently asked questions

How do I complete the notary section?
Sign the application or co-owner supplemental sheet in front of the notary, who completes the “Sworn to and subscribed before me” jurat. Do not sign that section beforehand.
Do I need to notarize every form in the packet?
The application and co-owner supplemental sheet include jurats. The employee registration form shown in the packet does not include a notary block; follow the instructions for the sections that apply to you.
Can I use online notarization for this form?
North Carolina’s remote electronic notarization program has not launched. Emergency video notarization is not online notarization and requires the signer and notary to be in North Carolina. Ask the department whether it accepts a remotely notarized signature.
What should I prepare before submitting the application?
The packet requests applicant and business details, ownership information where applicable, and information about photographs, fingerprints, and bond or trust arrangements. Confirm with the city or town if unsure.
