Can RON documents be notarized across state lines?

The answer is that notarization of RON documents can occur across state lines if both the signer and the notary are operating in states that comply with RON regulations. This is based on the principle that remote online notarization is governed by state law, and several states have enacted laws that permit notaries to perform remote notarizations for signers who are physically located in states where RON is legally recognized.

This means that as long as both the notary and the signer are in states that allow for remote notarization, the transaction can be valid. It's a growing practice that recognizes the need for flexibility and accessibility in legal documents and transactions, especially in our increasingly digital world.

Other options suggest limitations that do not reflect the current laws regarding RON. For instance, asserting that notarization must happen within the same state overlooks the mutual recognition of RON practices among states that have aligned their regulations. Additionally, the notion that only documents of federal relevance or specific types can be notarized remotely does not account for the broader spectrum of documents that can be legally notarized through RON, as long as they comply with relevant state laws.
