No statutory maximum found
The official source recorded for Alaska does not set a numeric maximum for any notarial act. Read the rule notes: a state without a number may still require that fees be reasonable, disclosed or agreed in advance.

Notarial acts vs. service fees
No statutory maximum found
No statutory maximum found
- No statutory maximum found for this act.
- A notary public may not charge a fee for a notarial act unless a fee schedule has been provided to the signer before the performance of the notarial act.
Travel, printing and add-ons are not part of this check. Some states restrict these charges, and listing a fee separately does not by itself make it permitted.
Travel fees in Alaska
No travel-fee text was captured from the Alaska official source in this data version. That is not the same as saying travel fees are unrestricted in Alaska; confirm with the commissioning authority, and agree the fee with the client before you drive.
Travel is a separate charge from the notarial act, so the maximums above do not cover it. Work out a travel charge with the notary travel fee calculator.
Fee notes from the Alaska source
A notary public may not charge a fee for a notarial act unless a fee schedule has been provided to the signer before the performance of the notarial act.
Electronic and remote notarization
An individual wanting to perform notarial acts for a remotely located individual must pay $100 at time of initial request following approval of a 4 year commission or $25 per remaining year(s) of pre-existing commission, to the State of Alaska. (This is a state authorization fee paid by the notary, not a cap on fees charged to signers.)
Quoted from the official source
A notary public may not charge a fee for a notarial act unless a fee schedule has been provided to the signer before the performance of the notarial act. Alaska Statutes do not address this subject for notaries without limitation except that a published fee schedule must be provided to the signer prior to the performance of the notarization. Limited Governmental Notaries may not charge for notarization.
Caveats and research notes
