Maximum Notary fees across the United States are defined explicitly by state law, and range anywhere from 25 cents to $10. Normally, states permit Notaries to charge any amount less than the maximum, or give them the option to not charge at all.
Notaries who overcharge run the risk of severe penalties ranging from fines and even jail time to administrative punishment or revocation of a commission.
