Closed on our Charleston home from the hospital. The title company sent the docs over and 12 minutes later we had a sealed Quitclaim Deed in their inbox. Cannot imagine doing this any other way.

Run a small LLC out of Columbia and used to drive far for notary work. Did three corporate resolutions last Sunday at midnight. The notary knew South Carolina formation docs cold.

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

Frequently asked

South Carolinians have asked these questions

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

Is online notarization legal for South Carolina documents?
Yes. South Carolina has not yet authorized its own RON program, but South Carolina accepts notarial acts performed by notaries commissioned in other states under S.C. Code §26-1-120(G). We connect you to a notary commissioned in a RON-authorized state (Texas, Florida, Pennsylvania, etc.); the resulting notarization is accepted by South Carolina county recorders, banks, title companies, and the courts.
Do I need to be physically located in South Carolina?
No — you can be anywhere. The notary you connect with is physically located in their commissioning state at the time of the act. As the signer, you can be in your home state, traveling, or overseas.
What kind of ID do I need?
A current government-issued photo ID: state driver's license, U.S. passport, or military ID. The standard follows the commissioning notary's state law; we meet "satisfactory evidence" of identity through credential analysis (ID scan) plus live biometric facial recognition matching you to your ID photo.
Will a South Carolina county recorder accept this?
Yes. South Carolina statute requires recorders to accept acknowledgments taken in another state when performed under that state's law. We also include the notary's state-issued electronic seal, certificate, and journal entry — everything a recorder needs.
Are there documents that cannot be notarized this way?
Most South Carolina documents can be notarized via cross-state RON. A few narrow exceptions apply — South Carolina-specific real estate forms with strict in-person requirements and 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 fee is set by the commissioning notary's state — typically $25 in Texas, Florida, and other RON states. Our price matches the statutory max — 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.
