How Much Does an Online Notary Cost in 2026?

Updated 2026-09-29 · Competitor pricing verified 2026-09-06

Short answer: $25 for one signer and one notarial seal, at Notaron and at every major platform. The base price is the same everywhere, so it is the add-ons that decide what you pay. On Notaron each extra signer is $10, each extra seal is $5 and a witness is $15, with no account to create, and you pay only when the notarization is complete. The table below prices four common sessions on each platform, including the ones where a competitor comes out cheaper.

Online notary price at a glance

On Notaron: $25 for one signer and one seal, +$10 per extra signer, +$5 per extra seal, +$15 per witness. Typical totals: one signer, one document $25; two signers, one document $35; one signer, two seals $30; two signers, two seals $40. No account to create, and you are charged only when the notarization is complete.

When another platform is cheaper

BlueNotary. Its extra signers are $5 and only the first extra seal is charged, so for multi-signer and multi-seal sessions it costs less than Notaron: $35 against $40 for a two-signer, two-seal power of attorney. BlueNotary requires an account; Notaron does not, and charges only on completion. For one signer and one seal, the most common case, every platform in the table is $25.

What the $25 covers

The standard fee covers identity verification (credential analysis of your photo ID, plus knowledge-based authentication where state law requires it), the live video session with a commissioned notary, one notarial seal, and the recorded audit trail that makes the notarization legally durable. On Notaron it also covers free storage of the notarized document in your account.

Where totals diverge: multi-signer and multi-seal documents

A power of attorney with two signers and two notarial acts is where platforms separate. On Notaron that's $25 + $10 (second signer) + $5 (second seal) = $40. On Notarize (Proof), $25 + $10 + $15 = $50. On OneNotary, $25 + $10 + $10 = $45. On BlueNotary, $25 + $5 + $5 = $35 — cheaper than Notaron for this shape, which is worth saying plainly. Always price the whole session, not the headline number.

Online vs. in-person notary costs

States cap in-person notarial fees (often $5–$15 per act), but mobile notaries add travel fees that commonly bring a house call to $50–$100. Online notarization trades the travel fee for a $25 flat platform fee, is available around the clock, and for recordable documents can flow directly into county e-recording.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a $5, $10 or $15 online notary?
Not for a whole notarization on any platform compared here — each charges $25 for a standard one-signer, one-seal session. $5, $10 and $15 are add-on prices: on Notaron an extra seal is $5, an extra signer is $10 and a witness is $15; on Notarize (Proof) an extra seal is $15.
What is the cheapest online notary?
For one signer and one seal, all five platforms here charge $25. With more signers or seals, BlueNotary's add-ons are the lowest, and Notaron's $5 extra seal is next. Notaron is the only one of the five that lets you start without an account and charges only when the notarization is complete.
How much does Notarize (Proof) cost?
$25 for the first notarization on its consumer pricing, $10 for each additional signer and $15 for each additional seal. The same two-signer, two-seal session is $50 on Notarize and $40 on Notaron.
Why does online notarization cost more than a state's notary fee cap?
State fee caps apply to the notarial act itself. RON platform fees also cover identity-proofing technology, the secure audio-video session, recording storage requirements (often 10 years), and 24/7 notary availability — and most states have set separate, higher allowable fees for remote notarizations for exactly this reason.
Are there hidden fees with online notaries?
The common surprises are per-signer meeting fees, per-seal charges, short document-storage windows, and specialty-document pricing. The comparison table on this page lists each platform's published add-on prices so you can total your session before you start.
How much do witnesses cost?
Where a document requires witnesses, platforms either let you bring your own (free) or provide one for a fee — Notaron provides witnesses at $15 each. Bring-your-own witnesses can usually join the same video session.
