What is Remote Online Notarization (RON)?
Remote Online Notarization (RON) is a method of notarizing documents using secure audio‑video communication technology. Instead of meeting a notary in person, the signer and notary connect online through a platform that verifies identity, records the session, and applies a digital notarial seal.
Key Features
- Conducted entirely online
- Identity verified through credential analysis and knowledge‑based authentication
- Session is recorded and stored as part of the audit trail
- Notary applies a digital certificate and electronic seal
Why It Matters
RON makes notarization faster, more accessible, and more flexible — especially for people who travel, live remotely, or need urgent notarization outside normal business hours.
