The Florida short form notary acknowledgement for a corporation is a certificate proving that a corporate official was identified by a notary public and that they acknowledged their signature in the notary’s presence. By “acknowledging” the signature, the official affirms that they signed on behalf of the corporation for the reasons set forth in the document. The notary must specify on the acknowledgement certificate the type of identification used to establish the official’s identity (unless the official is personally known to the notary). Additionally, the notary must determine the authority under which the official has been permitted to conduct corporate transactions.
