Remote Online Notarization (RON) allows a commissioned notary public to perform notarial acts using audio/video technology for remotely located individuals under certain circumstances using vendors meeting specific requirements. RON also allows notaries from other states to perform Remote Online Notarizations for Oregonians.
Understanding the Process
It is important to understand the process and ensure all the requirements are met before starting to notarize remotely.
Training is required before you can begin. Our office provides required remote online notarization training and the vendor that you select will provide training on how to use their platform.
The Notary must still be located in Oregon like traditional notarizations, but the signer can be located outside Oregon.
RON and IPEN (in-person electronic notarization) are not the same and there are two separate application processes if you want to notarize using both types of notarization. Learn more about IPEN.
