Notaries are not attornies and therefore cannot practice legal advice. When it comes to Remote Online Notarization it is up to the signer to ask the receiving party if electronic signatures will be accepted on the document as well as electronic notarizations. Certain documents and types of signings in certain States may not be accepted. Please note that rejected documents, if executed properly, will not be refunded if you have not checked with your receiving party ahead of time.

Remote Online Notarization FAQ
Remote Online Notarization (RON) is a process where a commissioned Florida notary public notarizes documents online using secure live audio-video communication technology instead of in-person signing. It is legally authorized under Florida law and lets signers complete notary requirements from anywhere with internet access.
Yes. Florida law (HB 409, effective January 1, 2020) authorizes notaries public in Florida to perform Remote Online Notarization (RON) as long as the notary and the process comply with the statutory requirements.
Yes — any person who needs a document notarized can use Remote Online Notarization (RON). The signer must have a valid government-issued ID and internet access for secure video. Freelance signers and business clients alike can choose RON for convenience and speed.
To complete a Remote Online Notarization (RON) session you need:
-
A device (smartphone, tablet, computer) with webcam + microphone
-
Reliable high-speed internet
-
Compatible RON platform software provided by an approved RON service provider (not FaceTime or Skype)
-
A valid digital copy of your document
This audio-video session must provide clear, real-time visibility and sound.
-
For RON in Florida the notary must verify your identity through:
-
Remote presentation of a government-issued ID (passport, driver’s license, state ID)
-
Credential analysis (software checks ID authenticity)
-
Identity proofing / Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA) questions tied to your SSN or personal history
Signers must pass identity verification before notarization can occur.
-
No. For Remote Online Notarization (RON), your appearance is virtual. You must be visible to the notary in real time via audio-video technology, but physical presence in the same room is not required.
While the notary must be commissioned in Florida, you can be physically located anywhere in the U.S. or world when doing a Remote Online Notarization, provided you consent to Florida law governing the notarization.
Most notarizable documents can be completed via Remote Online Notarization (RON), including:
-
Power of Attorney
-
Affidavits and Declarations
-
Contracts
-
Real estate closing documents
-
Business agreements
Check acceptance requirements for institutions (banks, courts, foreign recipients) before remote use.
-
Some documents may require witnesses under Florida law. In RON, witnesses can appear remotely via audio-video if the law permits — and their identities must also be verified by the notary.
RON sessions can generally be completed in 15–45 minutes, depending on document length, identity verification and signer readiness.
Florida requires the audio-video communication session to be securely recorded and stored by the RON service provider and/or notary. The notary must maintain an electronic journal and keep the recording for the legally required retention period.
RON is designed with multiple layers of security:
-
Encrypted audio-video session
-
ID credential analysis
-
Knowledge-based authentication
-
Recorded video evidence
These measures prevent fraud and protect signer identity.
-
Yes — Remote Online Notarization (RON) is a fully legal alternative to traditional in-person notary services in Florida and can be more convenient for signers with busy schedules, remote locations, health concerns, or time constraints.
Documents notarized via Remote Online Notarization in Florida are legally valid under Florida law, but acceptance by other states, federal agencies, or foreign countries may vary. Always confirm requirements with the receiving entity.
