e-notary
An e-notary is a notary public who performs notarizations digitally using electronic documents and secure online platforms. Technology replaces traditional in-person signing, allowing individuals and businesses to verify identities and sign documents remotely. E-notarizations ensure the same legal validity as physical notarizations through digital signatures, encryption, and audit trails. This process increases convenience, efficiency, and accessibility, especially for long-distance or time-sensitive transactions. E-notaries adhere to specific legal and security standards to ensure the authenticity and integrity of electronic documents, making remote notarizations trustworthy and legally binding.
