Unlike traditional notarization, which is performed in person, online notarization is conducted online. This means that rather than having to meet a Notary in person at the same physical location, the notarization business can be transacted from the convenience of your computer or mobile device. Online notarization is also sometimes referred to as – remote notarization, webcam notarization, virtual notarization or remote online notarization (RON). With online notarization, the signer and Notary use audio/visual technology to meet remotely to complete the remote notarization transaction over the Internet rather than being physically in the same room. This is not to be confused with electronic notarization (eNotarization) or mobile notarization services. These types of notarization still require the signer to physically appear before the Notary at a specified location. Yet with electronic, the signatures are electronic, whereas with mobile, the Notary travels to you to perform the service.
