agree  Kaiya J. Diannen: Notice is used more often, as in "public notice", "official notice"... not sure why the asker couldn't find this through other sources though, including Proz

Explanation:
I prefer the more formal notification in such contexts, see: Neues Grosses Wörterbuch, 2006, p. 204.

neutral  Kaiya J. Diannen: To me the difference here is between a "notification", in which a specific person or organization is "notified" of something, and a "notice", which is published for example in an official Gazette. In this case, context will hold the key.
