A Remote Online Notary (RON) is a legally commissioned state official who performs notarial acts over the internet. Instead of meeting in person, signers and the notary connect via secure two-way audio-video technology.
To ensure security and prevent fraud, the RON process relies on strict digital verification:
- Identity Verification: Signers upload government-issued IDs and answer personal history questions (Knowledge-Based Authentication).
- Digital Signing: Documents are signed using electronic signatures and sealed with an official digital certificate.
- Record Keeping: The entire session is securely recorded and logged.
This allows you to safely and legally notarize documents from anywhere.
If you’re interested in notarizing a document, I can:
- Find the exact requirements for your state
- I use the approved platform Blue Notary.
- I do not accept anything over Zoom, Facetime or any other unsecured video platform.
