About the notarial act<\/h2>
A notary deposit account is most commonly used to pay the purchase price for property or in commercial transactions. A notarial deposit helps to ensure that the sum agreed in the transaction is paid out only after the conditions specified by the parties have been met.

In the case of a notarial deposit, the money is paid into the notary deposit account before the transaction, and the notary only releases it once the conditions set by the parties have been met. This gives the seller the assurance that the buyer has the necessary funds, and gives the buyer the assurance that the money will not be paid to the seller until the agreed conditions have been met.

What is a notary deposit account?<\/h3>
A notary deposit account is a separate bank account opened in the notary\u2019s name. Although the account name contains the notary\u2019s first name and surname, it is not the notary\u2019s personal account and the money in it does not belong to the notary.

A notary deposit account may only be used to hold funds relating to notarial acts or notarial services. All amounts credited to the account and all payments made from it are recorded in the deposit ledger.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
