Closed on our Brooklyn co-op board package from the office. The board sent the docs over and 12 minutes later they had a sealed Bargain & Sale Deed. The biometric ID match was instant.

Run a small fund out of midtown and used to wait 4 days for a mobile notary. Did three operating-agreement amendments in 20 minutes. The notary knew NY LLC formation cold.

Needed a Statutory Durable POA for my mom in Buffalo while I'm stationed overseas. We connected on video, walked through it page by page. Patient and kind notary.

Frequently asked

New Yorkers have asked these questions

The answers below are specific to New York law. If your situation is more complex, contact us — we're here to help.

Is online notarization actually legal in New York?
Yes. New York authorized Remote Online Notarization with S1780/A399, signed in 2021 with electronic notarization rules effective January 31, 2023. The relevant statute is N.Y. Exec. Law §135-c, with implementing rules at 19 NYCRR Part 182. Documents notarized online by a New York-commissioned electronic notary have the same legal effect as in-person notarizations.
Do I need to be physically located in New York?
No — you do not need to be in New York. The notary must be physically located in New York at the time of the act, but you (the signer) can be anywhere in the world.
What kind of ID do I need?
A current government-issued photo ID: New York driver's license, New York non-driver ID, U.S. passport, or military ID. New York requires "satisfactory evidence" of identity; we meet it through credential analysis (ID scan) plus live biometric facial recognition matching you to your ID photo.
Are there documents that cannot be notarized online in New York?
Most New York documents can be notarized online. A few narrow exceptions apply — testamentary documents follow specific procedures, and some federal immigration forms (e.g., I-9 employment verification when performed by the employer's agent) require specific procedures.
How much does a notarization cost?
$25 per notarial act. The New York maximum statutory fee for an online notarization is $25 per signature (Exec. Law §136(a)). Our price matches the statutory max — never higher — with no subscription, no "platform fee," and no per-seal upcharge.
Do you offer pricing discounts for multiple documents?
Yes. The state caps the per-act fee, but our platform supports notarizing multiple documents in a single session, and we offer volume and business pricing. See the full fee schedule for details.
Will a New York county clerk accept an online notarization?
Yes. A notarization by a New York-commissioned electronic notary is recorded in their state-registered electronic journal and carries the notary's state-issued electronic seal and certificate. New York county clerks are required to accept it for recording the same as an in-person notarization.
