Pricing policy
With the exception of his work as an advisor who does not contribute to the drafting of a notarial deed and the drafting of certain deeds referred to as “in the free sector”, most of the notary’s activities are subject to a single fee set by decree. Therefore, the price of the notary’s services is therefore the same regardless of the client or the geographical area. The fee is either fixed or proportional to the capital involved in the transaction.
Law no. 2015-990 of 6 August 2015, decrees no. 2016-230 of 26 February 2016 and no. 2016-1369 of 12 October 2016 and the orders of 26 February 2016, 17 October 2016, 28 October 2016 and 28 February 2020 set the regulated fees for notaires, which are incorporated into the French Commercial Code.
