Are a notary in the United States and a Notario in Mexico the same? NO!! Here are the main differences:
A Notario is a high-ranking government appointed official who possesses a law degree and has extensive training in a number of legal areas.
A Notary is someone who has taken and passed a government issued test in the United States, but does not require any formal training.
A Notario can give legal advice and assist with disputes.
A Notary mainly handles clerical matters, such as bearing witness to signature of documents and administering oaths.
A Notario in Mexico will make sure that your deed or fideicomiso is correct and will also register it in the public registry. Notarios can also assist with immigration paperwork and incorporation.
Finding a good Notario is a key part of your Mexican real estate transaction. Most realtors have someone they use on a regular basis, but it is always good to ask for references.
