How to Perform a Remote Online Notarization

[@MASKEDMAN712]

California needs to adopt this. We're behind with the times in terms of remote work.

[@NationalNotary]

Once we have an update on RON in CA, we'll let our Notary community know.

It seems that the maximum allowed charge for RON notarizations is $25. If this is correct, then after paying the RON platform a portion, the net is maybe $10. What would be the benefit then to notarize by RON instead of in person and charge a travel fee?

How could the signer sign your notary journal. If it's remote? They're not there with you..

[@momiulislam9544]

Nice

[@gracextended]

Does it have to be on a platform to apply to be a RON? For VA there were no positions available or no call back to start

[@NationalNotary]

Hello. Because the application form requires a general description of the technology vendor chosen to create the Notary's electronic signature for official notarial acts, the Notary should select a software/hardware provider prior to filling out their application. More information about VA can be found here: www.nationalnotary.org/knowledge-center/remote-online-notary/how-to-become-a-remote-online-notary/virginia

[@yayalux711]

Do RONs only apply to real estate transactions or can it apply to other general notary work?!

[@NationalNotary]

Hello. You can notarize general notary work as well. You do not have to be a certified Notary Signing Agent to become an online Notary. However, becoming a certified NSA makes you eligible to receive more RON assignments and ensures RON technology providers you've passed a current background screening. www.nationalnotary.org/knowledge-center/remote-online-notary/how-to-become-a-remote-online-notary

I wonder if there is there a demand for this type of service? I live in Ohio.

SIMPLE ENOUGH

[@jajarene5870]

If I'm on vacation in another country outside of the U.S, will I be able to still do notarizations remotely for people in the states?

[@NationalNotary]

Remote online Notaries may notarize documents for signers located anywhere in or outside of the U.S. Regardless of where the signer is located, the Notary must be physically located in their commissioning state during the notarial act.

How do signers find Remote Notaries? Also, can I do both RON and mobile notary work at the same time?

[@NationalNotary]

Signers in every state can get documents notarized online through virtual Notary services like NotaryCam,* Notarize, and DocVerify to name a few. Remote online notarization providers connect you, the signer, with commissioned Notaries Public who are allowed to complete a notarization remotely via webcam technology. You can perform RON if it's allowed in your state: www.nationalnotary.org/knowledge-center/remote-online-notary/how-to-become-a-remote-online-notary

[@nadirahcroom1938]

@@NationalNotarythank you! I'm currently working on getting my Notary Commission. I know for a fact that I want to get involved with RON. Can I do both general notary work and Ron consecutively as long as I notify my state?

[@NationalNotary]

@@nadirahcroom1938 Very exciting! You can perform general notarizations and RON. However you have to make sure RON is allowed in your state and follow any specific requirements/guidelines.

[@nadirahcroom1938]

@@NationalNotary Yes Ron is allowed in Pennsylvania. I'm also wondering if I'm I'm allowed to use as many platforms as I'd like to.🤔
