Acceptable Identification for Notarization in California
To have a document notarized in California, you must present valid identification.
Here are some commonly accepted forms:
California Driver's License or Identification Card
U.S. Passport
U.S. Military ID
Permanent Resident Card (Green Card)
Valid Foreign Passport
Employee ID issued by a California state, county, or city agency
