How it works
Notary work in South Carolina
We offer South Carolina contractors in-person jobs near them (mobile visits and loan signings) as requests come in; volume varies by area. 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 Charleston, Columbia, Greenville.
What you need

- A W-9 and a signed independent contractor agreement
- A current E&O policy with a $100,000 minimum
- NNA Notary Signing Agent certification only if you want loan signings (optional otherwise); upload your commission and E&O documents when you apply

- A smartphone and email, and a printer for loan documents if you want in-person loan work
- Your South Carolina notary commission, active and good for another 60 days or longer
South Carolina fees
What South Carolina says about notary fees
The National Notary Association's state fee table lists the state's maximum fee as $5.
State fees cover the notarial act. How travel and other service charges are handled is a separate question that depends on the state law, which is why we confirm it with you before we assign any South Carolina job.
For context on the state: Wikipedia notes that Boeing assembles the 787 Dreamliner at Charleston International Airport and that BMW has a plant in Spartanburg County.

Beyond the home office
What generates signings here
- Charleston (Charleston County and part of Berkeley County): places that generate documents include the Port of Charleston, Boeing and other aerospace employers, and the tourism and information technology sectors.
- Columbia (Richland County and parts of Lexington and Kershaw counties): local institutions named in its Wikipedia article include state government, the University of South Carolina, Fort Jackson, Prisma Health Midlands and BlueCross BlueShield of the state.
- Greenville (Greenville County): signings come from sources such as Michelin, Prisma Health, Bon Secours and Duke Energy.

South Carolina details
Before you apply in South Carolina
Notary commissions in the state are tied to South Carolina 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 46 counties. 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.
Work is per job, offered as requests arrive inside your travel radius, whether that is near Charleston, Columbia, Greenville or a smaller town. We don't guarantee any number of jobs.
This is general information, not legal advice. We are young and keep the team small on purpose, which means early contractors get first call as work 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.
