Remote Online Notarization Domestic & International

What Is Remote Online Notarization (RON)?

Remote Online Notarization (RON) is a secure, legal method that allows documents to be notarized entirely online—regardless of the signer’s location. This means you can complete your notarization from anywhere in the U.S. or internationally, as long as you have internet access.

Key Facts About RON:

1. The Notary Must Be Commissioned in Their State
   The notary public performing the RON must be physically located in and commissioned by their U.S. state of authorization. However, the client can be located anywhere, whether in another U.S. state or abroad. Whether you're living in another state, stationed overseas, or traveling internationally, we’ve got you covered.
2. 24/7 Availability
   We offer 24/7 remote notarization services to accommodate your schedule—no matter your time zone or location.
3. Secure Identity Verification – KBA Process
   Before notarization begins, the signer must pass a Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA) check. This secure method verifies your identity using personal questions (e.g., past addresses, vehicle loans). You'll be presented with multiple-choice questions that must be answered correctly within a limited time to proceed. This step is mandatory to help prevent fraud.
4. Real-Time, Face-to-Face Notarization
   The notarization session is conducted via live video conferencing where:
   The client sees the notary, and the notary sees the client.
   The notary confirms identity and witnesses the signing in real time.
   Once complete, the notarized document is delivered electronically.
