Contact the agency that issued your notary certificate, they will have state specific information for you along with what steps to follow.
You can also try the National Notary Association for more information: www.nationalnotary.org (they have an 800# and you don't have to be a member to ask questions!).
Bank of America does offer notary services. Notary services at Bank of America are free of charge to customers of the bank. Notary services are available during normal bank hours.
Generally in the United States, if the signing of a document requires a witness, it should state that it needs to be notarized. To have a document notorized is to have a Notary Public confirm by his/her seal that he/she witnessed the signing of the document and confirmed the signer's identification. (So never sign a document before taking it to be notarized, because the Notary Public has to witness the signing.) (Sorry, I don't know how or if it is done differently outside the US.)
Bank of America branches typically offer notary services, but availability can vary by location. To find a specific branch near you that provides notary services, you can visit the Bank of America website and use their branch locator tool. Additionally, you may want to call the branch in advance to confirm that notary services are available and if an appointment is needed.

In many states, a notary stamp is the notary seal. In general, people use "notary seal" as a reference to an embossing/raised seal. However, some states require notaries to use stamps rather than embossers, and in these areas it is common to refer to the stamp as a "notary seal".
Yes. As a notary I have a seal and a stamp that I use when I notarize papers. It is sent to a notary once they have gone through a fingerprint check and giving an oath.
Yes, you can use both a notary stamp and a notary seal on a document, but it's important to understand that they often serve similar purposes. A notary stamp typically contains the notary's information and is used to imprint the document, while a notary seal may be an embossed or raised seal used for added security. However, the requirements can vary by state or jurisdiction, so it's best to check local regulations regarding notarization practices.
YES
No, not unless it's referring to something like the Notary Seal.
No.
Yes, the complete notary seal typically needs to be visible on the document to ensure its authenticity and validity. The seal should include the notary's name, title, commission number, and the state where the notary is commissioned. If any part of the seal is obscured, it may lead to challenges regarding the legitimacy of the notarization. Always check your state's specific requirements, as they can vary.

Yes, Wells Fargo offers notary services at many of its branches, and some locations may feature a gold seal notary. However, availability can vary by branch, so it's advisable to contact your local Wells Fargo branch ahead of time to confirm if they provide this service and if a gold seal notary is available.
In the U.S., the notary's stamp or seal is affixed next to their signature or immediately underneath their signature, in the appropriate notarial certificate. Notaries can not simply "sign and stamp" without appropriate notary wording already provided on the document.
