Remote Online Notary (RON)

Yes!  With remote online notarization, the signer does not have to be in the physical presence of the notary.  Instead, the signer “appears” via audio-videoconference with the notary. The signer can be located anywhere in the world during the notary session, and the notarial act will be legal under Oregon law.

Yes!  The online notary session is recorded, so any signs of duress or coercion can be reviewed after the session’s completion. Second, the signer’s identity is verified with a two-step process of identity-proofing questions and a technology-driven analysis of the signer’s identification card. Our system uses technology that can instantly analyze the signer’s photo ID. The signed document in an online notary session is sealed with a tamper-evident digital signing certificate that secures this document from being tampered with.
