Online and remote notarization
The Connecticut Secretary of the State's notary page references Public Act 23-28 on remote notarial acts but gives no separate fee, so check the office's remote notarization guidance before relying on an online fee.
Travel and other charges
The page says the same law also increased the mileage rate but does not state the rate, so ask the notary what they charge and get the total before you book.
