Remote Online Notarization (RON): What You Need to Know
Discover the benefits and legality of Remote Online Notarization (RON)
and learn how Idiomatic Southeast can assist you with notarized document translations and Apostille services.
Remote Online Notarization (RON) Explained
Remote Online Notarization (RON) is a streamlined process that allows a state-licensed notary public to notarize a document remotely using advanced technologies such as electronic signatures, identity verification, and audio-visual tools. Typically conducted through secure online video chat software, RON requires prior identification verification of the signee.
Is Remote Online Notarization Legal?
RON legislation is gaining traction across the United States. Virginia became the first state to permit online notarization in 2011, followed by Montana in 2015. Today, more than 35 other states have enacted RON legislation, while most others allow notaries to perform RON acts. A properly executed RON document carries the same legal weight as a traditionally notarized paper document, making it valid throughout the United States. Click here to see where RON is legal.
Types of Documents Suitable for RON
RON is commonly utilized in various industries, including insurance, legal, finance, and government sectors.
Here are a few examples of documents often notarized via RON:
Affidavits and motions: Frequently notarized documents in litigation, including written requests for legal rulings.
Power of attorney: Notarization required when granting a person the authority to act on behalf of another.
Deeds: Legal documents facilitating the transfer of real property ownership.
Quitclaim deeds: Notarized documents for transferring public or private property to a grantee.
Notarized child custody agreements: Essential in family court cases outlining co-parenting arrangements.
When you need an official translation of a document for use outside the US, such as submitting it to a foreign embassy, officials often require an officially translated document. Typically, this entails having a professional translator or translation company provide a notarized certification of accuracy before a notary. In some cases, the document may also require an Apostille.
