Can a document be notarized when the signer does not have proper identification?
If the identification of a signer cannot be based on a proper I.D., a notary may rely on the oath of two credible identifying witnesses that are unknown to the notary who possess proper I.D. cards. This creates a "chain of knowledge", which is acceptable by California state law.
Why do documents require notarization?
Most importantly to deter fraud. To help protect the legal rights of the persons whose signatures are being notarized. It is the legal responsibility of the notary, serving as an impartial witness and public official, to ensure that the signers of notarized documents are indeed who they claim to be.

For certain documents, yes. Many affidavits, real estate deeds, loan papers, powers of attorney, and other types of documents must be properly notarized to become legally binding. Oftentimes one of the simplest ways to determine whether a document requires notarization is to examine it- specifically, in the vicinity of the signature area- for notarial wording, such as "...subscribed and sworn to before me..."or"...acknowledged to..." Such wording varies from state to state (and from country to country), so use these examples only as a general guide. Also be aware that not all documents requiring notarizing contain the mandatory notarial wording; in such cases, the notary must add the necessary wording to the documents.
