Not enough information is given with which to answer the question. WHAT kind of "agent" is being referred to?

However this general statement can be made; an individiual acting under a "power of attorney" CANNOT notarize any documents bearing their own signature.

In other words, they cannot sign something acting in their capacity as a POA and then, if they also happen to be a Notary Public, they cannot notarize that same document.

Who qualifies as a notary?

Depending on the state, you can become a notary as long as you do not have a felony record and you can be bonded. You may have to take a short course on the rules and regulations but it is fairly simple. Check to see if your state has a website and look up "notaries" for more information. ___ Surely, one already has to be an attorney before one can become a notary?
