Nevada follows federal odometer disclosure rules for most transfers of ownership. For late-model vehicles, the title usually includes a designated odometer section that must be completed accurately. When a separate sworn statement is required, the disclosure is often paired with a notary jurat.

• Which vehicles: Odometer disclosure applies to most passenger vehicles under federal rules for a defined model-year range. Newer vehicles often have specific title sections. Very old vehicles or vehicles above certain thresholds may be exempt. Check your title and instructions.
• How notarization fits: The title itself is typically signed, and when the deal includes a sworn declaration or corrective affidavit, that page is notarized with a jurat. We administer an oath or affirmation and witness the signature.
• Common mistakes: Leaving mileage blank, using an estimate without labeling, or writing over corrections. Complete the section cleanly and bring any supporting forms your DMV clerk requested.
• Power of attorney use: If an agent signs on behalf of the owner, DMV may require a properly notarized VP 136 and may limit POA usage for certain odometer situations. Verify before your appointment.

Yes, this happens frequently. Banks refuse to notarize documents they prepared because notaries must act as impartial third parties witnessing signatures without endorsing document content. If a bank notary is employed by the institution that drafted the document, impartiality is questioned, creating legal liability exposure.

Conflict of Interest & Liability Concerns:

Complex documents like powers of attorney, trusts, or healthcare directives require specific formalities. Bank policies often prohibit notarization of unfamiliar or sensitive documents, especially those involving estate planning. The concern is that any error could expose the bank to liability claims. By refusing, banks protect themselves—but leave you without a service you may urgently need.

✍️ When Banks Say No to Their Own Documents:

• Financial power of attorney prepared by the bank's legal department
• Trust documents the bank reviewed but didn't draft
• Complex healthcare directives requiring witness verification
• Documents involving third-party beneficiaries or contested terms

⚖️ Your Options:

Seek a licensed mobile notary experienced with estate planning. Professional notaries in Rancho Bel Air and Summerlin provide specialized notarization with proper legal oversight and immediate availability, bypassing bank delays and refusals.
