In a world where almost everything is done online — from banking to doctor appointments — it’s no surprise that notarizing documents has gone digital too. Online notarization is quickly becoming the new standard across the U.S., and for good reason: it’s faster, safer, more convenient, and legally valid in all 50 states.
But what is it exactly, and how does it work?
What Is Online Notarization?
Online notarization, also called Remote Online Notarization (RON), is a process that allows you to get your documents legally notarized via live video chat with a commissioned notary public. Instead of meeting in person, you meet on your smartphone, tablet, or computer — from anywhere in the world.
You simply upload your document, verify your identity, meet the notary on a secure video platform, and electronically sign. Within minutes, you receive your legally notarized document, ready for use.
Is Online Notarization Legal?
Yes — online notarization is 100% legal and valid in all 50 states. Florida was one of the first states to authorize RON, and many others have followed. When you notarize a document through a certified online platform, it carries the same legal weight as traditional in-person notarization.
