How Mobile Notaries Support Remote Online Notarizations

Jul 30

Introduction

The notarization landscape has evolved rapidly with advancements in technology, and one of the most significant innovations is Remote Online Notarization (RON). This process allows documents to be notarized electronically over secure video calls, providing unmatched convenience without sacrificing legal integrity.

At Cannon Mobile Notary, we embrace cutting-edge technology while maintaining the highest standards of security and professionalism to serve clients across Southwest Florida with trusted remote notarization services.

What is Remote Online Notarization (RON)?

Remote Online Notarization is a method by which a notary public and a signer can interact remotely using audiovisual technology, typically via a secure online platform. Signers can upload documents, verify their identity electronically, and complete the notarization without meeting the notary in person.

How RON Works: Step-by-Step

Document Preparation: The signer uploads the document(s) to a secure RON platform.
Identity Verification: The signer verifies their identity through multi-factor authentication methods, such as government-issued ID scans, knowledge-based authentication questions, and biometric data.
Live Video Conference: The notary and signer connect via a live video call where the notary witnesses the signing and notarizes the document electronically.
Electronic Signature & Notarial Seal: The signer applies an electronic signature, and the notary applies a digital seal.
Secure Storage and Delivery: The notarized documents are securely stored and delivered electronically to the signer and any designated parties.

Benefits of Remote Online Notarization

1. Convenience

RON eliminates the need for physical travel, allowing notarizations to happen anytime and anywhere with internet access.

2. Time Efficiency

Remote notarizations can be scheduled quickly and completed in minutes, ideal for busy professionals or urgent transactions.

3. Enhanced Security

Multi-layered identity verification and encrypted digital signatures reduce fraud risk compared to traditional notarizations.

4. Compliance

RON platforms comply with state laws, including Florida’s statutes on remote notarization, ensuring legal validity.
