Notarizing documents no longer requires printing paperwork or meeting a notary in person.
Remote Online Notarization (RON) allows individuals and businesses to complete legally binding notarizations entirely online using secure audio-visual technology.
As more transactions move to digital platforms, RON has become a trusted solution for people who value speed, flexibility, and security.
What Is Remote Online Notarization?
Remote Online Notarization (RON) is a process where a commissioned notary public notarizes documents through a secure online platform while the signer participates in a live video session. Documents are signed electronically, and the notary applies a digital signature and seal.
RON is legally authorized in many U.S. states, including Indiana, and is commonly used for both personal and business documents when permitted by law and the receiving agency.
How Does Remote Online Notary Service Work?
The RON process is simple and efficient:
Schedule your remote notarization appointment
Verify your identity using secure, multi-step authentication
Meet with the notary via live video
Sign your documents electronically
Receive your notarized documents immediately
This process eliminates travel, printing, scanning, and mailing delays.
What Documents Can Be Notarized Online?
Remote Online Notarization is commonly used for:
Power of Attorney
Affidavits and sworn statements
Estate planning documents
Business agreements
Authorization and consent forms
Certain real estate and financial documents
Acceptance may vary depending on the document type and receiving organization, so professional review is recommended before scheduling.

Choosing RON offers several advantages:
Convenience – Notarize documents from home, work, or anywhere with internet access.Speed – Many notarizations can be completed the same day.Accessibility – Ideal for out-of-state, remote, or international clients.Security – Encrypted platforms, identity verification, and recorded sessions help protect against fraud.Paperless Process – Reduces the need for physical documents.
Is Remote Online Notarization Legal?
Yes. Remote Online Notarization is legal when performed by a properly commissioned notary using an approved platform and following state-specific requirements.
However, not all institutions accept RON for every document. Working with an experienced remote online notary helps ensure your notarization meets legal and acceptance standards.
Mobile Notary vs. Remote Online Notary
Both options offer convenience, but each serves different needs.
