Notarize

Legally and securely notarize any document in minutes from your iPhone or iPad.

Notarize serves every American worldwide. Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week—even during holidays. Average wait time is less than one minute.

Traveling abroad and need a document notarized? Can’t find a notary near you? Have a time-sensitive request after business hours? Say hello to Notarize.

How it works: Upload or scan your documents. Next, take a picture of your license or passport and answer a few security questions - this is how we verify your identity. Then connect with a licensed Virginia electronic notary via an audio/video call to sign and notarize your document. Once your document is notarized, you can download, email, and access the file in the app at any time.

Notarize also accepts documents that require more than one signer.

Notarize agents are held to the highest standards and have completed training, undergone background checks, and independently hold insurance in accordance with notary industry best practices. All Notarize agents are electronic notaries located in Virginia.

Are online notarizations legal? YES. We’re able to provide this service thanks to Virginia Senate Bill 827 and House Bill 2318, which were passed in 2011, enabling Virginia-based notaries to perform electronic notarizations online. The service is available to any US citizen, even those traveling abroad, due to the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the U.S. Constitution as well as laws in every state that explicitly accept out-of-state notarizations.
