What ID does a Utah notary accept?
Quick Answer
Utah notaries accept a valid government-issued photo ID with a signature and physical description, a current passport, or identification through a credible witness.
Utah law requires notaries to positively identify every signer. The following forms of identification are accepted:
- Government-issued photo ID with a signature and physical description (e.g., Utah driver license, state ID card)
- Current U.S. or foreign passport
- U.S. military ID with photo and signature
- Credible witness: A personally known, disinterested third party who can vouch for the signer's identity under oath
Important: Utah Driving Privilege Cards are NOT accepted as valid identification for notarization. These cards are issued regardless of immigration status and do not meet the legal requirements for notary identification.
Your ID must be current and unexpired. If your ID has expired, you may need to use a credible witness or obtain a new ID before your appointment.
