About the Notaron blog
Remote online notarization (RON) lets a signer appear before a commissioned notary over live, recorded video instead of in person. The rules behind it — which states authorize it, how identity has to be proven, which documents a county will accept for recording — change every year. This blog explains those rules in plain language, so you can tell before you start whether an online notarization will work for your document.
Guides for signers
Most posts answer a practical question someone asked us: how to notarize a power of attorney, a bill of sale or a travel consent letter online; what ID you need; what happens during the identity check; and what to do when a receiving office is unfamiliar with electronic notarization. Each guide ends with what the process costs and how long it takes, so nothing is a surprise when you start a session.
State law and compliance
Notarization is regulated state by state, and the notary's state law is what governs a remote session. We cover new RON statutes as they take effect, changes to identity-proofing and record-retention requirements, and state programs that affect real estate and estate planning documents. For a standing reference rather than news, see our RON laws by state and e-signature laws by state.
Real estate and e-recording
Deeds, mortgages and lien releases usually have to be recorded with a county after they are notarized. Whether that recording can happen electronically depends on the county. Our posts explain how e-recording works, and the e-recording eligibility directory lists which counties in each state accept electronic documents.
For businesses and notaries
Law firms, title companies, lenders and HR teams use remote notarization to close transactions without scheduling an in-person meeting. We write about the workflows and audit requirements those teams care about — see solutions by industry. Notaries who want to build a remote practice can read how Notaron works for notaries.
Need a document notarized now?
You don't have to finish reading first. Notaries are available 24/7, a standard session is $25 for one signer and one notarization, and most sessions finish in about ten minutes. Start a session, or compare the full pricing first. If you need the document itself, start from one of our free form templates.
