What is remote online notarization?
Remote Online Notarization (RON) lets a commissioned notary verify your identity and witness your signature over a secure audio-video session, so you can complete it from home.
Where RON is permitted for your document and state, it's legally valid — and often much faster than arranging an in-person notary.
We confirm whether RON is available for your specific document, then handle the apostille afterward.

What is remote online notarization?+
RON lets a commissioned notary verify your identity and notarize your document over a secure audio-video session, so you can complete it from anywhere without meeting in person.
Is an online notarization valid?+
Where it's permitted for your document and state, a properly performed RON is legally valid. We confirm whether RON is available for your specific document and destination.
Can the document then be apostilled?+
Yes. Once notarized, we route the document to the correct Secretary of State or the U.S. Department of State for the apostille.
What do I need?+
A device with a camera and microphone, a stable internet connection, and a valid government-issued photo ID.
Are there documents that can't be done by remote online notarization?+
Some documents, states, and receiving authorities don't accept a remote notarization — a few consulates and certain record types still require an in-person notary. We check eligibility for your specific document and destination before you book, and suggest our mobile notary if RON won't be accepted.
Is the online session recorded and secure?+
Yes. RON requires identity verification and a recorded audio-video session, which the notary retains as required by law. The recording and your identity checks are part of what makes a remote notarization valid and defensible.
