Notaries public in North Dakota can now apply to serve their communities as commissioned online notaries. This commission will allow you to complete electronic notarizations completely online through a secure, two-way video call.
Current North Dakota notaries can apply to become an online notary public through the Secretary of State’s Office. You can find the application and its requirements here.
As of April 15, 2020, notaries must notify the Secretary of State’s office that they intend to perform remote notarial acts. That email should be sent to sosaccnot@nd.gov, along with any additional questions.
