Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about remote notarization, pricing, BlueNotary, and remote apostille processing.

You request the appointment, prepare your documents, complete identity verification through the BlueNotary workflow, and meet the notary in a live online audio and video session to complete the notarial act.

The first notarial act is $25. Each additional notarial act or signature in the same appointment is $5.

Send us the documents, remotely notarize the documents if required, and we process the apostille documents in New York State. All apostille handling is processed in NYC.

No. The notary must be in New York for the remote act, but the signer can be elsewhere, subject to the legal requirements that apply to the session and the document.

Apostilles are used for countries that recognize apostilles. Some destinations require a certificate of authentication instead. We recommend confirming the destination requirement before final submission.

The posted apostille service price includes New York state fees, transportation costs, and handling. Remote notary fees are separate if the document still needs notarization.
