What is a Notary Public?

A Spanish Notary Public is a civil servant ascribed to the State who provides citizens with legal certainty in out-of-court legal transactions. As these legal professionals also practice competitively, this two-fold quality guarantees their impartiality.

A Notary Public offers:

Guaranteed security and legality:

seeking to ensure that the contract, transaction or statement in question conforms to law and is unimpeachable. A public deed constitutes authentic evidence before the courts of justice and its veracity cannot be disputed.

Peace of mind:

any document signed before a Notary Public provides peace of mind that the transaction or contract is final, unchangeable and effective.

Proximity:

as Notaries Public have offices all over Spain, the closest one to you may be freely chosen.

Highly qualified professionals:

in order to join a notarial association, all applicants must complete long and in-depth studies, and pass a selection process that is strict and objective. Notaries Public are constantly refreshing their professional knowledge in both national and international matters.

Impartiality:

Notaries Public are only conditioned by applicable law.

Up-to-date knowledge::

Notaries Public try to anticipate and be prepared for any new social and technological requirements, permanently adapting their functions to any innovation.

Efficiency:

The cost involved in a Notary Public’s formalisation is far less than the social and economic costs avoided in the process. Only a small part of what is paid to a Notary Public is part of the invoice payment. Most of it is a provision to cover taxes, registrar fees and other expenses incurred that the Notary Public must pay on behalf of the client.
