Services and Mission

Silver Spring Notary offers affordable, fast, and easy notary public services. We provide virtual and remote notary services, travel and mobile notary services, as well as your traditional in-office notary services.

We are flexible, and just want to provide your notarization needs.

Upon request, we can provide witnesses. Notarizing after hours or on weekends and holidays can be an additional fee.

Virtual/Remote Notary Services

Need a notary? Like right now (or within a couple of hours)?

As long as you are in the state of Maryland, and have a valid photo identification, you and I can video chat and get this thing done.

Just email over the signed (wet or digital) document you need notarized, and Silver Spring Notary will:

– Print the document

– Notary stamp the document

– Scan and email the stamped document back to you

Travel/Mobile Notary Services

You just found out you need to have something notarized but you don’t want to go anywhere? You are busy. You have things to do. Don’t worry about it, because we will come to you!

We are happy to travel anywhere within Silver Spring, Bethesda, Chevy Chase and the surrounding neighborhoods. Other locations may be available upon requests, however prices may vary.

 

In-Office Notary Services

Silver Spring Notary is a home-office shop. You are more than welcome to come over and get your documents signed here if that works better for your schedule. Please excuse the toys and play areas, I promise this is a professional shop, haha.

What makes us special is that we can come to you or notarize your documents virtually, but you are always welcome here!

About Silver Spring Notary

Hey, I’m Ethan. I was commissioned as a Notary Public in 2020 when it was rumored that mail-in ballots would require notarization for the primary and general election, and I planned to offer free notary services to anyone who wanted to vote by mail. Luckily that bill never became law and Marylanders’ right to vote was preserved, but now I am just a notary here to help you!

Ethan was terrific to work with. It was easy to schedule and appointment with him. So much better than trying to coordinate with when a notary is available at the bank. Would definitely recommend working with Ethan and Silver Spring Notary!

I would first like to say that this small business helped when I was desperate on a late night and wasn't getting the responses I needed. Silver Spring Notary answered my call, during their precious family time and allowed me to interrupt their process to notarize for me and my family. I will always come back to Silver Spring Notary as long as I'm in the area. Thank you! You were a life saver!

The Silver Spring Notary came through for me when my appointment with the bank notary was cancelled unexpectedly. I was able to schedule a quick, same day appointment and their rates were much more reasonable than FedEx. I am glad to have found this helpful resource in the neighborhood and highly recommend them!

Great service; fast and responsive! I needed a last-minute notary on a Sunday afternoon for a consent letter for my minor daughter to travel overseas. A quick google search brought up Silver Spring Notary and I called just to see if I could reach anyone. Ethan answered and was so easy to work with. He offered to come to us or send his address for us to come to his house. We set up a time, he sent his address via text and he was completely flexible with our schedule on a Sunday evening. Process took 10 minutes and it was quick and easy. Very friendly, very responsive and excellent service. Highly recommend!

I was in a pinch and having a hard time finding an “after work hours” notary. Ethan was incredible and saved the day. Not only was he accommodating, friendly and extremely professional, he understood my time limits and made the whole process extremely convenient. I’ve used “online mobile” notaries before - but never again after finding Ethan. I am sure with a daughter headed to college soon that we will need his services more in the near future and will be calling on him again soon. He was even willing to meet me at my office in DC. Thank you Ethan!
