Online Notarization in Oregon with Secured Signing

When it comes to notarizing important documents like real estate agreements and last wills, the process can often be time-consuming and require in-person appointments. However, Remote Online Notarization (RON) has revolutionized the way notary services are offered, allowing you to get your documents notarized quickly and conveniently. Secured Signing’s platform makes it easier than ever to access professional notary services online.

Oregon became the 35th state to permanently enact RON in June 2021, thanks to Senate Bill 765. This bill followed the temporary implementation of RON under House Bill 4212A, which was introduced to help notaries serve clients more safely and securely during the pandemic. Today, Oregon’s 40,000 notaries have access to RON technology, but they are required to undergo additional training and certification to perform remote online notarizations.

Oregon Notarization Requirements

For RON in Oregon, all parties involved must appear in front of the notary public via a live video session. They will electronically sign the documents, and the notary will apply their digital seal. At the time of signing, the parties are required to present valid identification such as a driver’s license, passport, or government-issued ID.

Before the notarization begins, signers should ensure their documents are free from any errors since the notary will not check for mistakes. After the process is completed, the notary will log the transaction in their notarial journal, complete with their signature and digital seal.

Key Features of Secured Signing’s RON Platform
