A South Carolina Notary Acknowledgment Form is a document used to validate the authenticity of a document that is often signed by various parties. The South Carolina Notary Acknowledgment should be signed by a notary public (or any another individual who holds such power to make these confirmations). The purpose of this acknowledgment is to confirm the identities and signatures of the individuals involved in the signing process. The notary public would also be expected to request a declaration from individuals regarding their willingness to sign the document in free will.
Once the notary public has checked this information along with the ID of all individuals, they may begin to signing the acknowledgment form. They do not need to witness the parties signing the document, this is not a legal requirement. However, it may still be a wise idea to do this. When the notary public signs the acknowledgment form by adding the required information, the document officially becomes legally binding.
