A notary has to follow the rules required for their jurisdiction. In almost all of them, you have to verify the identity of the person signing in front of you. Then you can legally notarize their signature.

What is the format for a notarized document?
There are two types of documents commonly referred to as "notarized", but which are completely different from one another. The first is a sworn statement, like an affidavit. The person signing is under oath that it is true under penalty of perjury. The notary countersigns with the satement "Sworn to and subscribed before me this __ day of ___. The other is an acknowledged document, like a deed or mortgage. Here the notary countersigns with a "acknowledgement". The exact form is usually spelled out in state statutes; however essentially it says that the person who signed it identified himself/herself to the notary and signed it in the notary's presence. It is not made under oath and is basically just a means of proving that the document was in fact signed by the person signing it.

You've heard the expression "signed, sealed and delivered"? These three things make the deed effective: signing it, sealing it, and delivering it to the other party.
How do you get a document notarized for someone else in Georgia?
If by "notarized" you mean taking an acknowledgment such as on a deed or mortgage or administering an oath such as on an affidavit, you cannot get it done for another person because the notary is required to personally witness the signing. If by "notarized" you mean simply attesting to the validity of a signature, you can get it done for another person, because that type of notarial act may be done based on the notary's personal knowledge or other satisfactory proof of the person's signature. For example if a notary is attesting to a signature and personally knows the person's signature, the notary may attest to the signature but may not complete an acknowledgment that the person signed it in his/her presence.

The person signing a quitclaim deed (or whatever it is you're actually describing) doesn't have to do it in any particular place, he just needs to have the signature witnessed (and ideally notarized). Any courthouse should have a public notary stashed away in a corner somewhere. So, yes.
