  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only if specified by the client

  4. Only for certain types of documents

The correct answer is: False

The statement is false because, in Illinois, a Notary Public is permitted to charge a maximum fee of $1 per notarial act, as stipulated by Illinois law. The law does not allow for a fee of $10 for notarizing a single document. Therefore, the correct answer highlights the importance of adhering to the legal requirements regarding notarial fees, ensuring that notaries do not overcharge for their services. Understanding the fee structure is essential for both notaries and clients to maintain compliance with state regulations.
