In Texas, various forms of identification are accepted for notarizations regardless of the age of the signer(s), ensuring the authenticity and validity of legal documents. Common forms of ID include state-issued driver’s licenses, identification cards, and concealed handgun licenses issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety. The notary must be able to review the original identification to be able to complete notary services, copies of ids are not permitted. Additionally, U.S. passports, military IDs, and foreign passports with appropriate visas are also recognized. For individuals without government-issued IDs, alternatives such as credible witnesses, may be utilized, provided they sufficiently verify the signer’s identity and eligibility. It’s essential for individuals seeking notarization services to ensure they have the appropriate identification in accordance with Texas regulations to facilitate a smooth and legally-binding process.
