Remote Online Notarizations Are Legal for California Documents—Here’s How
If you’ve heard that Remote Online Notarizations (RON) won’t be fully legal in California until 2030, you’re not wrong—but you’re not stuck waiting either.
There’s a legal workaround that’s working right now—and it’s already helping California title companies, attorneys, and residents get their documents notarized 100% online, no matter where they are.
✅ RON Is Legal in California—If Done Right
Here’s the key: while California notaries can’t yet perform RON themselves, California law does recognize notarizations legally performed by commissioned notaries in other states—as long as they follow the laws of their commissioning state.
That means if a compliant, out-of-state notary—say, from Tennessee, Texas, or Virginia—performs a remote online notarization using a certified platform and legal process, that notarization is fully valid on California documents.
This isn’t a loophole—it’s the law.
