Re: Operating Agreement
In Florida, agreements generally do not need to be notarized. An operating agreement is usually created for an LLC. Which legal structure you choose for your business will depend upon a number of factors, including the type of business you have, whether you will have employees, etc. You may wish to consult with a business law attorney or conduct some research yourself on how to start a business in Florida.

Re: Operating Agreement
No, an operating agreement need not be notarized. You don't have to have a corporation of LLC -- although that is quite common. You can have an operating agreement in connection with a partnership or joint venture, for instance.
