In an increasingly digital world, Remote Online Notarization (RON) offers a secure and convenient way to get documents notarized without having to meet in person. RON allows you to notarize documents online through a secure platform, providing flexibility for individuals and businesses with busy schedules or remote needs. This guide walks you through the steps of completing a remote online notarization and highlights how Stamp It Notary Services can help facilitate this process.
Step 1: Prepare Your Document
Begin by ensuring that your document is complete and ready for notarization. Double-check that all required fields are filled out, except for your signature, which must be added in the notary’s presence during the online session.
Step 2: Schedule a Remote Notarization Appointment
Contact Stamp It Notary Services to set up an appointment for a remote notarization. During this scheduling, you’ll receive instructions on how to access the secure online platform we use for remote notarizations. Be sure to have a stable internet connection and access to a camera and microphone for the session.
Step 3: Verify Your Identity
For security purposes, RON requires identity verification before proceeding. You’ll be asked to provide a valid, government-issued photo ID and may need to complete a series of questions, known as Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA), to confirm your identity. This step helps protect against fraud and ensures the process remains secure and legally compliant.
Step 4: Join the Video Session with the Notary
At the scheduled time, join the video session with our notary. Both parties must be visible on camera, and the session will be recorded as part of RON compliance. The notary will review your document with you and verify your understanding of its contents.
Step 5: Electronically Sign the Document
Once all requirements are met, you will electronically sign the document in the notary’s presence. The notary will then add their electronic seal and signature, completing the notarization process.
Step 6: Receive Your Notarized Document
After the session, you’ll receive a digital copy of your notarized document, complete with the notary’s electronic seal and a tamper-evident seal. This document is legally binding and ready for immediate use.
Why Choose Remote Online Notarization?
Remote Online Notarization is a convenient, secure, and legally accepted option for notarizing documents when in-person appointments are not feasible. It saves time, offers flexibility, and provides peace of mind through strict security and identity verification measures.
