Key Considerations Before Reserving a Stay at a Jail or Prison 

​​

1. Always reach out to the jail before contacting a OMA Services, LLC Notary Public to confirm if they permit visitors. It's important to inquire about the detention facility's visiting hours, particularly regarding Notary services. Each facility in America has its own regulations! Doing this can potentially save you money by avoiding the booking of non-refundable services that cannot be provided at Jails or Prisons.

​​

2. It is important to contact the inmate before the Notary's visit to the jail to explain why a Notary is being sent and what the document involves. If the inmate declines to sign the documents because they were not informed, you will still be responsible for the Notary fees. Notaries are not obligated to review documents with inmates as Notaries are not attorneys and cannot provide legal advice.

​​

3.If your document requires a witness, be aware that many jailers will not serve as witnesses on your documents. This may result in additional fees if the Notary needs to provide a secondary witness. Typically, the secondary witness will be another Notary, as most jails only permit multiple visitors to see an inmate if they are State-appointed officials, such as a Notary or an Attorney.

 

 

4. Notaries are prohibited from drafting documents for inmates to sign, including Release Forms, Power of Attorney Forms, Divorce Documents, etc., unless they are also a Licensed Document Preparer or an Attorney. When requesting a Notary, you should always bring your document with you or schedule with the document ready.

​​

5. You can either meet the Notary at the Jail to collect the document once the appointment is completed, provide a FedEx or UPS label for shipping the document to you, or be prepared to cover the cost of a FedEx, UPS label (or courier fee) for the Notary to send the document back to you.

​

6.Many jails prohibit inmates from signing with an ink pen. While this might be concerning, there are no Federal laws requiring a signature to be in ink for it to be legally binding. If the jail where your Notary provides services does not permit ink signatures, this is not the Notary's responsibility. The Notary's signature and stamp will always be in ink.
