How Do I Get USPS Form 1583 Notarized?

How to Notarize and Submit USPS Form 1583

To begin receiving mail with PostScan Mail, you must complete USPS Form 1583. This notarized form is required by the United States Postal Service for all Commercial Mail Receiving Agencies, including PostScan Mail. It verifies your identity and authorizes us to receive mail on your behalf.


How to Notarize USPS Form 1583

You have several options to complete the notarization requirement:


PostScan Mail partners with NotaryLive and OnlineNotary.net to offer fast and convenient online notarization.

  • Available directly through the Postal Consent Form Wizard in your PostScan Mail account
  • Completed via live webcam session
  • The notary signs and stamps the form using an All-Purpose Acknowledgement
  • Once completed, the form is automatically submitted to PostScan Mail
  • No mailing or additional steps required

Option 2: Local Notary

You may also visit a local notary public, commonly found at:

  • Courthouses
  • Banks or credit unions
  • Local mail centers or office supply stores
  • Independent notary offices

Tip: Many banks provide free notary services to their customers. Check with your bank before paying a fee.


Option 3: In-Person Verification at Select Locations

Some PostScan Mail locations allow in-person identity verification, which may eliminate the need for notarization.

  • You must visit the location in person with valid identification
  • Availability depends on the specific mailbox location
  • Please call ahead to confirm whether your location supports this option

If your form is notarized outside of the online wizard or in person, mail the original USPS Form 1583 along with copies of your two forms of ID to:
