What Is Remote Online Notarization (RON)?

Remote Online Notarization — or RON — is a technology-driven solution that allows you to sign and notarize documents online through a secure, two-way video session with a commissioned notary public.

​​

RON combines the legal authority of traditional notarization with the convenience and security of modern technology, making it the fastest, safest, and most accessible way to get your documents notarized.

📍 RON Laws Across the U.S.

Remote notarizations performed by a state-authorized online notary are legally valid in all 50 states — as long as they're completed under that state's laws.

​

Some states haven't yet authorized their own notaries to perform RON, but they fully accept notarizations performed by notaries commissioned in states that do.​​

​

Below is a map of the states that have enacted RON laws. A small number of jurisdictions shaded in red (Alabama, California, District of Columbia, Georgia, Mississippi) - do not currently authorize their own notaries to perform RON signings. However, out-of-state RON notarizations are still legal and accepted in those jurisdictions.
