About notarized photocopies of documents...
Copy certification is an act where the notary determines a photocopy is a full, true and accurate reproduction of an original, privately held document. The typical types of documents for copy certification are business documents, diplomas, passports, and copies of letters. The notary should supervise the photocopying of the document. notaries must avoid certifying copies of documents that are public records, such as birth/death certificates, court records and deeds.
