Remote Services

A new law, NY Executive Law Section 135-c, authorizes notaries to perform electronic notarial acts, provided we first register with the Department of State and comply with new rules for performing electronic notarizations.  On February 1, 2023, notaries wishing to provide electronic notary services were able to register as an Electronic Notary with the Department of State.

New York had become the 38th state to enact a permanent RON (Remote Online Notarization) system, and we are among the first to have registered to provide eectronic notarial acts. Remote ink notarizations (RIN) are no longer allowed.

Our firm provides remote/eNotary services to clients anywhere.  We were the first in New York State to introduce the concept of Remote Notary Services.

What this means if you require a document or documents notarized:

  1. The person or persons will have to join the notary in a secure, online, third-part site to have documents notarized;
  2. Through either credential analysis or identity proofing, a third-party validates the identity of each signer. Credential analysis is a process where a third-party service validates a government-issued identification presented by an individual through a review of public and proprietary data sources. Identity proofing is a process or service through which a third party confirms the identity of a signer through review of personal information from public and proprietary data sources.
  3. The person or persons must have the ability to upload the document(s) to be signed;
  4. The notaries electronic signature and stamp are applied to the document signed by the signers.

*Fees for Electronic/Remote Online Notarization (RON). as set by New York State, are $25 per electronic notarial act. In most cases, there are at least two electronic notarial acts to get a document electronically notarized. The first is Identity Proofing/Verification, done by a third party that will scan your valid and current government-issued ID and then either link to the credit reporting bureau for you to answer a series of multiple choice questions. Second is the notarization of a signature ($25 per signature being notarized).

*Note: Identity proofing may be waived for those who are already known by the notary.

Inquire about bulk pricing if more than 12 signatures are being notarized.

Remote Services Area

Thanks to NY Executive Law Section 135-c, the use of remote/electronic notarization is allowed by NYS Notaries Public. 

We were the first to introduce the concept of Remote Notary Services, and we are among the first to be registered for electronic notarizations.

What this means if you require a document or documents notarized:

  1. The notary must be in NYS but the person using the services can be any place, provided that if the person is not in the US, the following additional rule applies:

    If the principal is located outside of the United States, the notary must verify, through verbal confirmation made by the signer in the course of the recorded electronic notarial act, that the record or subject of the notarial act:

    (1) is to be filed with or relates to a matter before a public official or court, governmental entity, or other entity subject to the jurisdiction of the United States; or

    (2) involves property located in the territorial jurisdiction of the United States or involves a transaction substantially connected with the United States;

    If an electronic notarization is done remotely, the jurat must expressly state that the person making the acknowledgement or making the oath appeared through use of communication technology.

Document Notarization

When Do I Need a Notary?

Documents are notarized to deter fraud and to ensure proper execution. It is the responsibility of the notary public to ensure that the signers have appeared before them and have produced proper identification. The Notary Public officiates at the signing and insures that the documents are signed correctly.

A Notary’s duty is to screen the signers of important documents — such as property deeds, wills and powers of attorney — for their true identity, their willingness to sign without duress or intimidation, and their awareness of the contents of the document or transaction. Some notarizations also require the Notary to put the signer under an oath, declaring under penalty of perjury that the information contained in a document is true and correct.

Impartiality is the foundation of the Notary’s public trust. They are duty-bound not to act in situations where they have a personal interest. The public trusts that the Notary’s screening tasks have not been corrupted by self-interest. And impartiality dictates that a Notary never refuse to serve a person due to race, nationality, religion, politics, sexual orientation or status as a non-customer.

As official representatives of the state, Notaries Public certify the proper execution of many of the life-changing documents of private citizens — whether those diverse transactions convey real estate, grant powers of attorney, establish a prenuptial agreement, or perform the multitude of other activities that enable our civil society to function.
