Step 2: Review the Rules of Performing RONs in Alabama

Remote notarization in Alabama operates under specific conditions set forth by Senate Bill 275.

Under this law:

  • Notaries may perform remote acknowledgments, allowing them to verify a signer’s identity via communication technology.
  • However, the notary must be physically located within Alabama at the time of performing the notarial act.
  • The signer may be located elsewhere — within or outside the state — as long as the requirements for remote acknowledgment are satisfied.

Summary

Alabama’s law provides flexibility for remote notarization while maintaining state jurisdiction over notarial acts.
Before conducting RONs, ensure your setup through Notary Hub meets all technological and procedural requirements outlined by Alabama’s notary statutes.
