Notary Application - Checklist

The following documents must be scanned and attached to your application.

Make sure that the information on your ID is legible, and that the scan is right-side up.

If you have a Colorado issued Part 5 ID card or an out of state driver’s license that is invalid for identification or federal purposes, you must also include a copy of your lawful presence documentation as listed in #3.

If you have a Colorado driver's license or ID card (issued by the Dept. of Revenue), you can enter your ID number during the Attachments step instead of scanning and attaching a copy.
