Why a U.S. Notary Matters — Especially from Europe: Many U.S. banks, courts, authorities, and counterparties do not accept European notarizations for documents governed by U.S. law.
If your document must be valid under U.S. law, it often must be notarized by a U.S. notary — even if you are physically located in Europe.
This service exists to remove that friction.
Clear guidance on apostilles and document acceptance reduces the risk of rejection by U.S. authorities, banks, and courts by ensuring documents are prepared correctly from the outset.
Clients avoid delays, repeat filings, and unnecessary costs because requirements are addressed proactively, not after a problem arises.
No unnecessary delay, travel, or confusion, your U.S. notarization is completed remotely, on schedule, and in full compliance with U.S. notarial law.
Clear instructions, upfront review, and a streamlined process ensure your documents are accepted the first time.
Every notarization is handled with deliberate accuracy because a single error can invalidate an entire transaction.

German Register of Deed refuses to accept a notarization from a U.S. public notary.

Many German-speaking clients are surprised to learn that U.S. institutions frequently reject European notarizations. This is not a reflection of quality, but of jurisdiction. When a document is governed by U.S. law, U.S. banks, courts, and authorities often require a notarization performed under U.S. notarial law.

German notarizations are highly respected, but they are not interchangeable with U.S. notarizations. U.S. banks and financial institutions operate under domestic compliance rules that often require a U.S. notary certificate.
July 14, 2022
A German Notar is a civil-law professional with broad legal authority. A U.S. Notary Public has a narrower role focused on identity verification and execution formalities, but U.S. institutions rely heavily on this system.
Understanding this distinction prevents costly mistakes. Transatlantic Notary Group does not replace German notaries; it provides U.S. notarizations where U.S. law or institutions require them.
