Generally, the activities of the Notary can be divided into two groups:

І. CERTIFICATION ACTIVITIES of the Notary, resulting from the certification functions, vested by the State in the Notary. These activities include the rights of the Notary:
- to certify the signatures, dates, and content of the documents presented before him by all parties (e.g. powers of attorney, declarations/statements, contracts, etc.);

- to certify the authenticity of copies of documents (e.g. copies of diplomas, birth certificates, etc.);
- to store personal wills/testaments, documents and other valuable papers;
- to announce personal wills/testaments;
- to draft and sign (legalize) title deeds for transactions with different types of real estate property (sales, donations/grants, substitutions, granting of construction rights, etc.);
- to draft certified deeds of will/testament, and to draft deeds for revocation of wills/testaments;
- to draft attestation protocols for the appearance, and/or lack thereof, of individuals before him, for the execution of specific activities;
- to present certified invitations/requests;
- to execute other forms of certification, as provided by law - e.g. protests against bills of exchange, etc.

ІІ. NON-CERTIFICATION ACTIVITIES of the Notary (ACTING LIKE A LEGAL
ADVISOR/COUNSEL). These include:
- preparation and inspection of document drafts, related to notary activities (preliminary drafting of title deeds, contracts, powers of attorney, certified wills/testaments, etc.);
- verbal and written consulting,
- mediation between parties, in order to clarify their wills or requirements;
- inquiries, references, finding of documents, papers, etc.;
- execution of wills/testaments and property governance (trusteeship).
