In this episode you will learn:
- Arizona notaries can legally charge any amount for a notarial act, from zero dollars up to the state-mandated maximum of $10.
- Charging the maximum statutory fee is an option for notaries, not a legal requirement.
- Employers are permitted to require their notary employees to perform notarial acts for free as a courtesy to customers or other employees.
- Exam questions often test the fee-waiving concept through scenarios, and it is always a permissible act.
- A common exam trap is confusing the strict prohibition on overcharging with the complete permissibility of undercharging or waiving fees.
