Remote Online Notarization

According to a law passed in 2023, notaries public can use online communications platforms to perform their duties. However, they first must complete training and notify our office through an online notification form.

The training and notification form aren’t yet available, so notaries shouldn’t use online remote platforms at this time.

We’re working with the Governor’s office and the Governor’s council to develop the remote online notarization notification form, and to enhance the entire notary application process.

If you have any questions about requirements of notaries public, review the notary public law.

Request for Information

After issuing a request for information (RFI) from remote online notarization communication technology platforms, we received several responses by the April 16, 2024 deadline.

We’re now reviewing these responses, to help develop rules and regulations on remote online notarization. We’ll provide more information when the draft of the rules and regulations becomes available for public comment.
