Notariaalsele refers to something that has been notarized. In many legal systems, a notary public is an official authorized to attest to the authenticity of signatures, administer oaths, and certify copies of documents. When a document is notarized, the notary public verifies the identity of the signatory and witnesses their signature. This process adds a layer of legal certainty and authenticity to the document, making it more reliable in legal proceedings or for official purposes.

The act of notarization typically involves the notary affixing their official seal and signature to the document, often alongside a statement confirming that the signature was made in their presence by the identified individual. This is particularly important for documents such as property deeds, affidavits, powers of attorney, and certain contracts. Notarization helps to prevent fraud and ensures that parties entering into agreements are aware of their obligations and are signing voluntarily. The specific requirements and procedures for notarization can vary by jurisdiction.
