What if my state doesn't allow RON?

We can use a notary commissioned in a RON-friendly state (e.g. Florida, Virginia). For documents that need to be filed in your home state's courts, we'll advise on the optimal path.

Can I notarize a copy of my passport?

Yes, this is one of our most common services. The notary verifies your physical passport against the copy you've uploaded, then certifies the copy as a true and accurate reproduction of the original.

What is notarized copy?

A notarized copy (also called a "certified true copy") is an exact copy of an original document, certified by a licensed notary public who has verified the original. Use it for visa applications, school enrollment, banking, embassy submissions, and contracts where the original must remain in your possession. Through Remote Online Notarization (RON), you can notarize from anywhere — no driving to an office.
