A quick definition of certificate of acknowledgment:

A certificate of acknowledgment is a piece of paper that proves someone signed a document and that their signature is real. It's like a special stamp that an important person, like a notary public, puts on the document to show that they saw the person sign it and that they are who they say they are. This helps make sure that important documents are real and not fake.

A more thorough explanation:

A certificate of acknowledgment is a document that verifies the authenticity of a signature on a legal document. It is typically signed by an authorized officer, such as a notary public, who confirms that the signer appeared before them and acknowledged signing the document freely.

  • When you sign a mortgage agreement, you may need to have your signature notarized and obtain a certificate of acknowledgment to prove that you signed the document.
  • A father who wants to formally acknowledge a child as his own may sign a written declaration that meets the state's requirements for execution and obtain a certificate of acknowledgment.

These examples illustrate how a certificate of acknowledgment is used to verify the authenticity of a signature on a legal document, whether it is a mortgage agreement or a formal acknowledgment of paternity.
