Once you receive a document that was notarized via remote online notarization, there are a few essential tokens to look for:
The document must not be modified after the notarization session is completed
The document must have a note that the notarization was performed online
Modified Documents
It is crucial that the document has not been modified since notarization. If it were modified post-notarization, you’d see a red X symbol. This means the document is invalid due to tampering.
Online Notarization Note
The notary should include a note next to the notary stamp that the document was notarized online. There is a placeholder in the text tool (labeled RON) in the OneNotary toolbox. Notaries can quickly insert this text on every online notarization by clicking on the tool.
