What is Remote Online Notarization and How Does it Work in Virginia?

In today’s digital world, convenience and security are key and Remote Online Notarization (RON) offers both. RON allows you to have your documents notarized virtually, without needing to meet a notary in person. Instead, the entire process takes place through a secure online platform using audio-visual technology.

Notarizing Document Remotely

Here’s how it works in Virginia:

1. Verify Your Identity – You’ll upload a valid ID and answer a few verification questions.

2. Connect with a Commissioned Online Notary – Through live video, the notary reviews your document and confirms your identity.

3. E-Sign and Notarize – You’ll electronically sign the document, and the notary applies their digital seal and signature.

4. Receive Your Completed Document – Once notarized, you can download or share your document instantly.

Virginia was one of the first states to authorize Remote Online Notarization, making it a trusted and legally recognized option for residents and businesses alike. Whether you’re closing on a home, finalizing a power of attorney, or signing important contracts, RON makes the process fast, secure, and accessible; anytime, anywhere.
