“What Is Remote Online Notarization and How Does It Work?”
In today’s fast-paced digital world, convenience and security are more important than ever—especially when it comes to legal and financial documents. That’s where Remote Online Notarization (RON) comes in.
Whether you're based in sunny South Florida’s Treasure Coast or anywhere across the U.S., remote notary services make it possible to get your documents notarized without ever leaving your home or office. But what exactly is RON, and how does it work? Let’s break it down.
📄 What Is Remote Online Notarization?
Remote Online Notarization is the process of notarizing documents electronically through a secure, live video connection. Instead of meeting with a notary in person, you connect via your computer or smartphone to complete the notarial act from anywhere.
RON is legally recognized in most U.S. states and offers a faster, more flexible alternative to traditional notarization—without compromising security or legal validity.
🛠️ How Does Remote Online Notarization Work?
The process is simple and typically takes less than 30 minutes. Here's how it works:
1. Schedule Your Appointment
Start by contacting a certified remote notary (like us!). You’ll choose a convenient time and receive instructions to access the secure online session.
2. Verify Your Identity
Before the session begins, you'll complete an identity verification process. This may include:
Uploading a valid government-issued ID (driver’s license, passport, etc.)
Answering a few security questions (known as Knowledge-Based Authentication or KBA)
3. Connect via Secure Video
At your scheduled time, you'll join a live video call with the notary. You’ll review the document together, confirm your identity again, and then sign digitally.
4. Electronic Notarization
Once the document is signed, the notary applies a digital seal and electronic signature, making it legally notarized.
5. Download or Receive Your Document
After notarization, you’ll receive a secure, legally binding copy of the notarized document, typically via email.
🔒 Is Remote Notarization Secure?
Yes—remote online notarization is highly secure. These sessions use encrypted platforms, identity verification tools, and secure storage systems to protect your information. Every session is also recorded and archived for legal compliance.
📍 Who Can Use Remote Notary Services?
Remote notary services are ideal for:
Real estate transactions
Powers of attorney
Affidavits and sworn statements
Loan agreements
Healthcare directives
Business contracts
If you’re a busy professional, traveling, or simply prefer convenience, RON offers a quick and legally valid solution.
