Yes — Plymouth County accepts electronic recording. Deeds, mortgages, satisfactions, and other notarized real estate documents can be submitted digitally to the Register of Deeds's office in Plymouth through approved e-recording channels instead of mailing paper originals, which typically cuts recording turnaround from days to hours.

Plymouth County is home to about 542,090 residents (U.S. Census Bureau, 2024 estimate), ranking 6th by population among the 13 Massachusetts jurisdictions in this directory. Its population has grown about 2.6% since 2020. Typical home values in the county are around $655,000 (Zillow Home Value Index, May 2026), so promptly and correctly recorded deeds and liens matter for buyers, sellers, and lenders here.

Massachusetts records through 21 Registry of Deeds districts — several counties (Berkshire, Bristol, Essex, Middlesex, Worcester) are divided into multiple registry districts, each with its own office, and some registries also operate a Land Court registered-land section.

For remote online notarization (RON), e-recording eligibility means the entire transaction can stay digital: sign and notarize online with Notaron, then submit the notarized document electronically for recording — no printing, shipping, or wet-ink originals. Title companies, lenders, and signing services use this combination to close and record the same day.
