The AGNP Credentialed Notary designation is part of a voluntary professional credentialing program available to active, commissioned notaries in the United States. According to the organization, the program is designed to help the public and institutions more easily verify notary identity and qualifications, with credentialing based on demonstrated knowledge, experience, and trustworthiness.
Notaries play a critical role in verifying identity, witnessing signatures, and helping ensure documents are properly executed. These services are often relied upon during significant personal, legal, and financial events, including estate planning, powers of attorney, affidavits, and other official records.
“Notarization is fundamentally about public trust,” said Cynthia Mealy. “Earning the AGNP Credentialed Notary designation reflects a commitment to professional standards and careful, consistent notarial practices.”
The American Guild of Notaries Public states that its mission includes promoting high standards of ethics and professionalism within the notary community, while increasing confidence in notarized documents. The organization emphasizes that credentialing can help reduce uncertainty for individuals and organizations who rely on properly performed notarial acts.
As demand continues for secure and verifiable document execution, credentialing programs such as AGNP’s aim to support transparency and confidence in the notarial process.
