After-Hours Mobile Notaries
554 of the 5,519 notaries we track nationwide have evening or weekend availability. Mobile notaries work by appointment, not storefront hours, so the "open now" hours Google shows for them are often just office hours for calls — not a promise anyone will show up at 9pm for a hospital signing or a Saturday closing. Every listing here has after-hours or 24-hour availability confirmed directly from the notary's own website or booking terms, not inferred from a generic hours field.

Call or text before 6pm if you can — it's cheaper. Most mobile notaries add a $25-$75 after-hours or rush surcharge on top of their standard $25-$75 travel fee, and true middle-of-the-night or hospital/jail signings often run to a flat $150-$250 regardless of the document itself.
Common questions
- Can I find a notary open at night or on weekends?
- Yes — many mobile notaries advertise 24/7 or evening/weekend availability specifically for loan signings, hospital and hospice visits, and jail notarizations, which real estate closings and urgent legal matters routinely require. Response time is usually 1-3 hours for a same-night appointment, faster in metro areas.
- Do notaries charge extra for after-hours appointments?
- Most do — expect a $25-$75 after-hours or emergency fee added to the base travel and signing fee, with weekend and holiday appointments sometimes priced the same as night calls. A handful of notaries build a flat 24-hour rate into their pricing instead, so it's worth asking directly rather than assuming the surcharge applies.
