FAQs
Frequently asked questions
General information about remote online notarization in Louisiana. Not legal advice.
Yes. Louisiana authorizes remote online notarization, where the notary and signer meet over live audio-video, identity is verified, and the electronic document is electronically signed and sealed. Some documents have special requirements, so if you are unsure whether yours qualifies, email us before booking.
You do not need to travel to an office. In most cases you can join your appointment from anywhere, though Louisiana rules may have requirements about where the signer is located at the time of the session. If you will be outside Louisiana, ask us before your appointment so we can confirm your situation.
You will need a valid government-issued photo ID, such as a driver's license or passport, and you will complete an electronic identity verification step during the session. The ID must be current and readable on camera. Contact us if you are unsure whether your ID will work.
Most appointments are completed during the scheduled session itself, and simple documents often finish in a single session. The exact length depends on your document, the number of signers, and identity verification.
Yes. Additional signers can join the same video session, and we can supply a witness if your document requires one. Each participant must be able to join the video session and verify their identity. Additional seals, signers, and witnesses are priced on the pricing section of this page.
Pricing starts at $25 per notarial stamp, which includes your first signer. Additional seals are $8, additional signers are $5, and witnesses are $10. You always know the total before you pay, and payment is collected online before the notarized document is released.
A PDF is the safest choice for your document. If your document is in another format, email it to us before your appointment and we will confirm whether it can be used.
