Virginia Notary Acknowledgement Forms

The Virginia Notary Acknowledgement forms are documents used by notaries in the state of Virginia to authenticate the signatures located on legal instruments. The type of acknowledgement form coincides with the signatory; a corporate acknowledgement would be used when a corporate officer signs on behalf of the company, a partnership acknowledgement would be employed in the same way. It is required that each signer of the initial document present themselves before a notary public, identify themselves, and declare that they signed by their own volition and for the purpose stated in the document.

Laws Code of Virginia  § 55-113.
