The article provides a legal analysis of the term "notary" as a legal definition. On this basis, the authors define the main problem of publication, namely, - the absence of a reasonable both normative legalization and doctrinal presentation of its legal definition, which creates duplication of almost similar in content of theoretical provisions, but in the interpretation of different authors. In this regard, it is proposed to enshrine the concept of notary in the author's version as a normative order.
