How it works
Notary work in Rhode Island
Jobs in Rhode Island are in-person mobile notary visits and loan signings, offered to contractors near the address as requests come in. We do not have an office in the state. Remote online sessions are handled by our New Jersey notaries, so jobs here are in person. This is general information, not legal advice. The larger cities in the state that our pages cover include Providence.

Rhode Island fees
What Rhode Island says about notary fees
For the notarial act itself, Rhode Island allows a notary to charge up to $25, per the National Notary Association.
Those limits apply to the notarial act. Travel and service charges are treated separately and differently from state to state, so we confirm the state rules with you first.
About the state's economy: Wikipedia names the State of Rhode Island, Brown University Health, Citizens Financial Group and CVS Caremark among notable employers.
From the National Notary Association's fee table, last updated September 16, 2026. Confirm the current figure with your state before relying on it. Not legal advice.
Beyond the home office
Where signings tend to come from
- Providence (Providence County): places that generate documents include Textron, United Natural Foods, Gilbane and Citizens Bank, with Brown University the second-largest employer.

Rhode Island details
Before you apply in Rhode Island
Notary commissions in the state are tied to Rhode Island Secretary of State. Before you apply, check that your commission is active and has at least 60 days left, because we cannot assign a job on a commission that is about to lapse.
The state has 5 counties (without county governments). Tell us which ones you will travel to and which you prefer to avoid, and we only offer in-person jobs inside that range.
What it pays
Pay and terms
Each job shows its pay up front. Take it, pass, or make a counter-offer. Every offer states what the job pays before you commit, including any job in the state. Contractors receive a 1099 at year end.
Offers start from $35 for a mobile notary visit and $75 for a loan signing, and many pay more.
Jobs are offered one at a time as client requests come in near your home ZIP, around Providence, Warwick, Cranston or anywhere else you are willing to travel. There is no guaranteed volume.
This page is not legal advice. Honest note: we are a young company, and we keep the team small so the contractors who join early get the work as it grows.
Use the application on this page, with your commission and E&O uploaded (plus the NNA certificate if you want loan signings). When everything is there and the dates check out, approval can be automatic, followed by an email to sign the agreement and add your W-9 before offers arrive by text or email.
FAQ
Rhode Island notary contractor questions
Can I apply if I am commissioned in Rhode Island?
Yes. Apply with your state commission and upload your commission and E&O documents with the application (NNA certification only if you want loan signings).
Is there work in Rhode Island right now?
That depends on demand, and we do not promise it. New Jersey is our main in-person market, so jobs in the state come as clients there ask.
What does it cost to join?
There is no fee to apply or join. The only costs are the ones you already carry as a notary: commission and insurance, plus NNA certification for loan signings.
Do you have an office in Rhode Island?
No. MCC Solutions is based in Cranford, New Jersey, and we do not have an office outside it. Contractors work from where they live.
