Before you notarize
What to have ready for a ten-minute session.
The notary verifies who you are and watches you sign. They don't review the content of your Parental Consent Form.
- The completed document as a PDF, photo, or scan. If you fill it out here, it carries over for you.
- Leave the signature blank. You sign during the video session, with the notary watching.
- A valid government-issued photo ID for every person signing.
- A phone or laptop with a camera and microphone, and a quiet, well-lit spot.
- Each additional document in the same session is $5.
Can you notarize a Parental Consent Form online in your state?
Remote online notarization is authorized in 43 states, and a notarization performed under a state’s RON law is generally recognized in the others — so signers in states without their own RON statute can usually still notarize online with a commissioned notary elsewhere. Whether this document is eligible, and whether it needs witnesses, depends on your state and on the party who will accept it. Select your state for its specific rules.
