A Mississippi witness notary acknowledgement form is used for notarizing the signature of a subscribing witness on a particular legal document. Having inscribed their signature, the witness must bring the document (with the notarial certificate included therein) to a notary public and show identification. Once the notary has confirmed the witness’ identity, they will ask for a verbal acknowledgement ensuring the document was signed under free will. The notary’s duty is complete once they fill out the notary acknowledgement form, inscribe their own signature, and affix their notary seal.
