Certified copies are copies of documents that have been certified to be accurate copies of originals.

Does a copy of a notarized document have to be notarized?
Not unless it is intended to be used as a 'legal' paper in it's own right. All 'official' notary stamps and impressions must be original.Another PerspectiveIf you need to use a copy of a notarized document for some purpose it must be a copy of the actual notarized form showing the acknowledgment. For example, many entities will accept a copy of a fully executed POA (Power of Attorney) for their records. A copy of a fully executed POA may be acceptable at some facilities where it must be used. Some hospitals may accept a copy of a fully executed health proxy for their records. If you want to have a copy of a legal document for your records make sure it's a copy of the fully executed, notarized document.When multiple originals of a legal document are executed they must each bear a notary stamp. A photocopy of a POA, health proxy or any legal document made before the document was fully executed has no value.A copy of a notarized document is acceptable in courts if it is certified as a true copy of the original. It must be certified as a true copy by the keeper of the records from which it came. For example, certified copies of documents that have been recorded in the land records can be obtained at that office.

Depending upon the law of the state in which the Notary has their 'powers' they MAY be able to ATTEST to the validity of the copy of a Last Will and Testament, PROVIDED that they have the original with which to compare it against. If the original will and the will copy run to more than one page, I believe they would have to affix their seal and signature on each page of the copy to ensure that altered copy pages were not inserted or added "after the fact."
