It depends on the state where you live. In Texas, for example, a medical power of attorney needs either (1) the signature of two persons who witness the subject's signature, OR (2) it needs to be notarized by a Notary Public who witnessed the subject signing the medical power of attorney. It does not need BOTH the witness signatures AND the notarization. But in almost all cases, it is a good idea to get the document notarized even if you have two witnesses. It reduces the possibility that it will be challenged.

No. There are no checkpoints as there are between countries so there is no way for the government to regulate that.
