Notaries in South Hams

If you need a document notarised in South Hams — covering Salcombe, Kingsbridge and Totnes — National Notaries connects you with a regulated notary near you and comes back with a free estimate, usually within the hour.

South Hams has one of the highest concentrations of second homes and holiday lets in Devon, and a large part of the notarial work we arrange here reflects that: powers of attorney for property purchases and sales, and paperwork for holiday letting businesses dealing with overseas guests and booking agents.

We also see a steady number of requests from people with family or property ties abroad — a power of attorney to sell or manage a house overseas, or documents needed to formalise an inheritance. Most need an apostille from the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office once notarised, which we arrange as part of the service.

Notaries covering South Hams serve Salcombe, Kingsbridge, Totnes and the surrounding villages, and many offer appointments at your home rather than requiring a trip to their office.

This is the country you require the documents for.
We need to know which postcode area you are in so we can send your enquiry to notaries local to you. If the area is too broad notaries do not respond. This will help us to better help you.
We need to understand what documents you need to be notarised. If your enquiry has limited details our experience tells us that notaries do not respond. If you give some details the pick up level is significantly higher and quicker.
For example – “I need legal documents for the US” would be better as “Sale of my property in Florida requires notarisation. Only one person signing."
If you would like some help with this you can call our helpline and we will be happy to help.

When we receive your enquiry we will be in touch to discuss your requirements.
