How does online notary work?

Online notarisation or remote online notarisation enables the notarisation of documents via digital platforms like Zoom and Docusign. 

Online verification verifies identities and witnesses signatures in real time. 

This method is advantageous for you if you require quick and reliable service without the need for physical travel. 

It's straightforward.

1. Schedule your appointment, give us a call or email us to book a session that suits your schedule.
2. Email us your documents so we can work together to ensure they are prepared and meet all requirements.
3. We email you the finalised documents ready for the secure video conference (VC).
4. You will be invited to a VC for identity verification and document signing.
5. You sign the document with electronic signature under the supervision of the Notary.

We then either prepare a Notarial Certificate in electronic or paper form depending on your requirements.

If you need it, we can arrange legalisation for you with either Apostille, e-Apostille or consular legalisation.

Do I need Notary and Apostille?

Sometimes the Notary's credentials need to be confirmed by the UK Government.   You should ask the final recipient as to whether an Apostille is needed or whether simple Notarisation is sufficient. 

If you do need an Apostille, we get you an E-Apostille or paper Apostille based on your requirements.

We can also handle Consular legalisation if it is required.  

 Please see our Guide to Apostilles and Country Guide  for more information.

We can obtain a regular paper Apostille or an E-Apostille.  You should check with your recipient as to what their requirement is. 

You can visit our Guide to E-Apostilles for more information.
