What is an e-Notary?

An e-Notary or electronic notary, is a public who is authorized to perform notarizations electronically. Instead of using paper documents, an e-Notary verifies the signer’s identities, witnesses signatures and applies an electronic seal on digital documents. This can be done via two-way audio-visual technology such as a computer, tablet - or remotely through secure online platforms, known as remote online notarization (RON).
