We notarize just about every document which needs to be notarized in the paper world. There are a few exceptions though, see below:

In an online notarization, both you and the notary electronically sign the notarized document. Per federal and state laws such as the ESIGN Act and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), when both sides agree to perform their transaction electronically, electronic signatures are just as valid as handwritten signatures for virtually all documents.

Both public and private institutions accept documents notarized electronically. As more businesses have become aware of electronic notary services, they prefer an online notary as opposed to a traditional one.

We use electronic signing (eSigning) technology that requires no additional hardware or application on your end, just your keyboard. When you are in a notary session you will sign by clicking on your name in the prefill document. We have embed a number of security features into the document to protect the validity of your signature.
