In today’s fast-paced, digital world, you no longer need to meet a notary in person to get your documents legally notarized. Thanks to E-Notary (Electronic Notarization) and Remote Online Notarization (RON), you can now notarize documents securely from anywhere in the United States — right from your computer or smartphone.
At Looking Glass Notary, we make the process simple, secure, and compliant with state and federal laws, giving you the convenience of notarizing online without compromising legal validity.
What Is an E-Notary (Electronic Notary)?
An E-Notary (or electronic notary) performs notarizations electronically instead of using paper and ink. The process is the same as a traditional notarization — verifying identity, confirming willingness, and witnessing signatures — but it’s done digitally using secure technology.
Types of electronic notarization:
-
Electronic Notarization (eNotary):
-
The signer and notary meet in person, but the documents are signed electronically.
-
The notary uses an electronic seal and digital certificate.
-
-
Remote Online Notarization (RON):
-
The signer and notary meet virtually via live video conference.
-
The entire process, from ID verification to digital sealing, happens online.
