RON for Santa Clara County signers

Remote online notarization lets you meet a commissioned California-authorized notary by video, verify your ID, and sign — all from home or the office. The notary applies a tamper-evident digital seal that's accepted nationwide for most documents. It's ideal for Santa Clara County residents who travel, work odd hours, or simply don't want to leave the house for a 5-minute notarization.

What you'll need

A government-issued photo ID, a device with a camera and microphone, and a stable internet connection. The platform walks you through ID verification and knowledge-based authentication, then connects you live with a notary. Sessions are recorded and stored per California law.
