A remote online notary is a notary public who is authorized to perform notarial acts remotely, using video conferencing technology to witness and certify the signing of documents.
Most types of documents can be notarized remotely, including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, deeds, and contracts.
You will need the document(s) that require notarization, a device that has audio and video capabilities, a valid government-issued photo ID (check the list of acceptable forms of identification), and a U.S. social security number to ensure secure identity verification. You can find the minimum system requirements for online notarization on our website.
You can join the session using a laptop, tablet, or mobile device. However, it’s important to ensure that your device has a stable internet connection, a working camera, and a microphone.
During the remote notary session, you should position your device’s camera so that it captures your full face, including your eyes, nose, and mouth. Failure to show your entire face during the session may result in the notary public being unable to verify your identity, which could prevent the notarization from taking place.
Absolutely! Online notarization is a valid method of notarizing documents. A document that is notarized online holds the same legal weight as one that is notarized using traditional paper-based methods.
Yes, online notarizations are valid and enforceable. They have the same legal validity as traditional, paper-based notarizations. The validity of online notarizations is determined by the laws of the notary’s commissioning state, and every state recognizes notarizations that are properly performed by notaries of other states. However, some states and public agencies may have specific additional requirements, limitations, and conditions for accepting electronically-signed documents, so it is important to check with the intended recipient of the document to confirm its acceptance.
An apostille agent is a professional who is authorized to obtain an apostille for a document that is intended to be used in a foreign country. An apostille is a certificate issued by the government that certifies the authenticity of a document and the signature of the official who signed it.
If you need to use a document in a foreign country, you may be required to obtain an apostille to ensure that it will be recognized as valid. An apostille agent can help you obtain the apostille and ensure that the document is properly authenticated for use in the foreign country.
A Notary Signing Agent (NSA) is a specialized type of notary public who is authorized to oversee the signing of important financial or legal documents, such as real estate transactions or loan agreements. NSAs have additional training and certification beyond that of a traditional notary public to ensure that they are knowledgeable about the specific documents they are notarizing.
If you are involved in a real estate or loan transaction, you may need a Notary Signing Agent to ensure that the documents are properly executed and notarized. The NSA will be present during the signing of the documents to verify the identity of the signers and ensure that they are signing the documents willingly and with full understanding of their contents. The NSA will also affix their notary seal to the documents to certify their authenticity.
