Legally Recognized in Most States
Our notaries are commissioned in RON-authorized states. Whether a specific notarized document is accepted depends on the document type, your state's law, and the receiving party — we'll flag it before you sign.
Signers Across the U.S.
Most signers in the United States can use our service, but RON eligibility varies by state. See the state-by-state status table below before booking.
Encrypted Sessions & Audit Trail
Every session uses an encrypted video connection, identity verification (KBA + credential analysis), and a tamper-evident audit trail with session recording — as required by state RON law.
NNA Certified Notaries
Every notary is NNA certified, background checked, and carries $1M in E&O insurance.
Where Remote Online Notarization Is Allowed
As of 2026, the large majority of U.S. states have permanent Remote Online Notarization (RON) statutes on the books, while several others operate under limited or in-transition authorization (often with carve-outs for specific document types or recording jurisdictions). The status below is summarized from the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) RON map and the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) RON tracker. Always confirm with the receiving party before relying on a RON for a high-stakes filing.
Summary as of 2026: 44 jurisdictions with permanent RON statutes and 7 with limited or in-transition authorization. For the authoritative current status, check the NASS RON map or your state's Secretary of State.
Documents That May Not Qualify for Online Notarization
Even in states with permanent RON statutes, certain document categories are typically excluded — either by statute or by the practice of the receiving party. Tell us about your document and we'll let you know whether RON or an in-person notary is the right fit.
- Wills, codicils, and testamentary trusts
Many states still require wills to be signed in the physical presence of witnesses and a notary. For estate-planning instruments that can be RON'd, a living trust is sometimes a better fit — but always confirm with your estate attorney first.
- Self-proving affidavits in some states
Even where the underlying affidavit may be RON-eligible, the self-proving clause attached to a will often is not.
- Real estate documents in non-RON jurisdictions
A deed of trust or other recordable instrument may be refused by a county recorder if the recording jurisdiction has not yet accepted RON-notarized documents from out-of-state notaries.
- I-9 employment forms
Employers' Form I-9 requirements often mandate in-person verification of identity documents; RON does not satisfy that obligation in most workplaces.
- Court-filed documents requiring wet ink
Some courts (especially federal courts and certain state probate divisions) require wet-ink signatures and physically-applied seals. Check your court's filing rules first.
- Documents the signer's state law excludes
A handful of states carve out specific document types (for example, certain trust amendments or family-law instruments) from RON eligibility even when the notary is RON-commissioned elsewhere.
When online notarization isn't the right fit, our mobile teams can come to you for documents like a power of attorney signing, a child travel consent letter before an international trip, or any sworn affidavit where the receiving party still requires an in-person witness — see the metro list near the bottom of this page.

Trust & Verification for Online Notarization
Online notarization is legally recognized in most U.S. states. Here's how each of our trust claims is backed up — with a link so you can verify it yourself.
How our notaries are vetted
Before a notary takes a single signing for us, we verify each of the items below. Renewals are tracked so coverage never lapses mid-assignment.
- 01
State commission verification
We confirm every notary holds an active commission with their state's commissioning authority before they take a single signing.
- 02
Background check provider & cadence
All notaries are screened by an accredited background check provider at onboarding and re-screened periodically per NNA-aligned standards.
- 03
$1M E&O insurance
Every notarization is backed by $1,000,000 in errors & omissions insurance, well above the typical $25K–$100K minimums most notaries carry.
- 04
Surety bond per state
Each notary carries the surety bond their state requires (amounts vary — for example California requires $15,000) so the public has a financial remedy if a notarial duty is breached.
- 05
NNA certification
All notaries are NNA Certified — they have passed the National Notary Association's certification exam and follow its Code of Professional Responsibility.
- 06
Ongoing training
Notaries in our network complete annual continuing-education refreshers covering statute updates, document categories (POA, deeds, loan signings, apostilles), and identity-fraud red flags so practice keeps pace with current law.
- 07
Renewal cadence
Commissions, bonds, E&O, and background checks are tracked on a calendar so renewals never lapse mid-assignment.
