What documents can be notarized on BlueNotary?

Any digitized document (PDF) or image can be uploaded for notarization.

We can perform any notarization that is legal for online notarization in the state where the notary is commissioned. Some documents, such as birth certificates, death certificates, and court documents often require in-person notarizations or qualified witnesses. It's always best to check with the party that requires the notarized document to make sure that online notarizations are acceptable.

Yes. We can legally notarize documents online in all 50 U.S. states.

Numerous states have passed laws authorizing their notaries to perform online notarizations. These online notarizations are accepted across the country due to a long-standing body of laws in each state that specifically provides for recognition and acceptance of out-of-state notarizations.

What is the identity verification process?

Our notary platform utilizes two-point identification processes which incorporates knowledge-based identification or biometrics scanning with live credential evaluation. Biometric forensic analysis performs facial scans in tandem with ID scanning. Knowledge-based identification (KBA) uses a series of 5 personal questions to verify the signer's identity, and credential verification uses visual and electronic analysis of the signer's physical ID to confirm their identity.

Is the notarized document encrypted/secure?

Every document notarized on the platform is encrypted using X.509 PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) technology for securing digitally signed documents. This ensures each finalized notarized document is tamper-evident.PKI is a system that governs the issuance of digital certificates that protect sensitive data and secure end-to-end communications. Digital certificates provide unique digital identities to users, applications, and devices in an online world. PKI is a critical part of the IT strategic backbone. PKI is important because the certificate-based technology helps organizations establish trusted signature, encryption, and identity between people, systems, and things. All Digital Certificates are built by an entity generating what is known as a key pair – a private key that remains confidential and a public key that is widely distributed. The private key is used for creating digital signatures and decrypting messages, while the public key is used by others to verify these signatures and encrypt messages to the key owner. The X.509 standard is based on Abstract Syntax Notation One, an interface description language which binds an identity -- such as an individual or hostname -- to a public key with a digital signature.
