The Notaries (Extension to Nagaland) Act, 1985

The Notaries (Extension to Nagaland) Act, 1985 is a state-level law that extends the application of the central Notaries Act of 1952 to cover the entire state of Nagaland. Prior to this legislation, the central law applied directly only in specific regions like Tuensang and Mon. By formally extending the rules to the districts of Kohima, Mokokchung, Phek, Wokha, and Zunheboto, this Act unifies the legal framework for public notaries throughout the state. It ensures that notarized documents, affidavits, and legal contracts executed anywhere in Nagaland carry proper authority and legal recognition under Indian law, benefiting individuals, businesses, and government administration.
