Do you want to know the notary fees? You’ve come to the right place! With our notary fee calculator, you can quickly and easily estimate the price of the most common notarial documents, such as wills, sales and powers of attorney. This FEE CALCULATOR is designed to give you a clear and approximate idea of the associated costs, including VAT and other factors that can influence the final price of a deed.
The prices of notarial services are regulated by the Government, allowing only limited discounts. The exact cost of notarizing a document cannot be calculated until its specific content is known, as different factors can influence the price. The number of copies requested also affects the final cost. The estimates on our WEBSITE include VAT and are adjusted with the possible discounts for documents of normal content. An excess of pages can slightly increase the price of the notary fee.

How much does a notary charge?
Do you want to know how much a notary charges for his services? Notary fees are the percentage that the client pays for the services provided. We will explain how notary fees are determined and calculated, breaking down the price of deeds or bank policies involved. We will provide an overview of the basic regulatory standards and, at the end, we will include some practical examples and a reference to our NOTARY PRICE CALCULATOR.
What are notary fees?
The exact cost of the notary cannot be known until the document is signed and fully drafted, as factors such as the number of pages influence the price. However, it is possible to obtain an estimate through a NOTARY COST ESTIMATE, which could vary if there are additions or changes. As costs are regulated, notaries must comply with the regulations to avoid sanctions for unfair competition.

Notary fees
The fee charged by the Notary for his services must be adjusted to the regulations governing the NOTARIAL FEE (RD 1426/1989, of November 17, which regulates the Notary Fee). Understanding the Notary’s bill, as well as determining whether the Fee has been correctly applied, can become a task similar in difficulty to interpreting the electricity bill. Well, we will try to shed some light by explaining the most frequent concepts that we must take into account to calculate the PRICE OR COST OF THE DEED.
Thus, the NOTARY PRICE is, generally, the sum of:
DOCUMENTED ACT + DOCUMENT PAGES + COPIES ISSUED + VAT
DOCUMENTED ACT
It is the fact, act or legal transaction reflected in the deed or writing, such as a sale, donation, will or inheritance. These are divided into two categories:
DOCUMENTS WITH QUANTITY:
These are those that have an economic value, such as the price of a sale, the value of a donation or the amount of a mortgage loan. They are known as ACTS OF QUANTITY, and if a deed documents several of these acts, each one constitutes a BASE that is priced according to an increasing scale.
The SCALE (*) is the following:
When the value does not exceed €6,010.12:————————- €90.151815.
For the excess between €6,010.13 and €30,050.60: ——4.5 per 1,000.
For the excess between €30,050.61 and €60,101.21: —–1.50 per 1,000.
For the excess between €60,101.22 and €150,253.03: —1 per 1,000.
For the excess between €150,253.04 and €601,012.10: — 0.5 per 1,000.
For the excess from €601,012.11 up to €6,010,121.04: ——–0.3 per 1,000.
For the excess of €6,010,121.04 —————————————— 0.15 per 1,000.
(*) For the INTERVENED BANK POLICY the scale is different.
DOCUMENTS WITHOUT A QUANTITY:
These are those that cannot be valued economically because they do not imply an amount or valuable thing, such as a power of attorney, will, appointment of administrator or photographic record. They are called ACTS WITHOUT A QUANTITY and, for each one, a FIXED AMOUNT is applied.
General deeds ——————– €30.05
Powers for lawsuits ——————– €15.02
Notarial deeds ————————– €36.05
Thus, the first minuted concept is obtained by adding the amounts corresponding to the acts of value or without value included in the deed.
For certain acts, such as home sales or mortgages, the Law establishes REDUCTIONS, which reduce the resulting amount. INCREASES can also be applied, such as procedures or departures from the office, which are charged separately.
DOCUMENT PAGES
The length of the deed affects its price, increasing with each additional page after the fifth, at a cost of €3.02 per extra page. However, the number of pages does not influence the price of an intervened bank policy.
COPIES ISSUED
Copies, whether simple or authorized, generate additional costs. The amount to be charged varies according to the number of pages in the copy and the years it has remained in the custody of the Notary.
Discounts at the Notary:
Notary competition in the prices of deeds is allowed through legal reductions in the cost, derived from the precise application of the Tariff.
VAT
Like any delivery of goods or provision of services in general, the Notary’s is subject to VAT at the general rate of 21%, which must be applied to the base formed by the sum of all the above concepts.
