Plourde Notary & Signing Services offers Remote Online Notarization (RON) for Maryland residents and businesses who prefer a fast, secure, and convenient way to get documents notarized — without leaving home.
All RON sessions comply with the Maryland Notary Public Act (Md. Code, State Gov’t §18-214) and the Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR 01.02.08.10) governing electronic notarizations.
Remote Online Notarization (RON) allows a Maryland notary public to notarize a document electronically through a secure audio-video platform.
Both the notary and the signer appear online — verifying identity, signing digitally, and applying a tamper-evident electronic seal.
1) Book a Session
Schedule your online notarization by clicking the “Book Virtual Session” button below. You’ll receive a confirmation email with upload instructions.
2) Upload Your Document
Send your PDF or Word document before the session. Most documents can be notarized electronically unless otherwise prohibited by law.
3) Verify Your Identity
You’ll verify your ID through credential analysis and knowledge-based authentication (KBA) — just like online banking security questions.
4) Meet Online
Join a live, recorded video session with your notary. You’ll sign electronically while the notary witnesses and applies their digital seal.
5) Receive Your Notarized Document
Within minutes, you’ll get a secure, tamper-evident PDF emailed to you with the completed notarial certificate and seal.
RON is ideal for:
Power of Attorney
Affidavits and sworn statements
Real estate and loan documents
Business contracts and agreements
Employment, HR, and compliance forms
School and financial aid paperwork
Note: Wills, codicils, and testamentary trusts generally require special procedures or in-person notarization under Maryland law.
A valid government-issued photo ID (driver’s license or passport)
A camera-enabled computer or smartphone
Reliable internet connection
The document in PDF format

Credential analysis using third-party technology
Tamper-evident digital signature and seal
Encrypted video recording stored for 10 years (COMAR 01.02.08.10E(3))
