Remote online notarization (RON) is a relatively new development in the field of notarization and was not widely used in the early 2000s. Whether RON is a necessity for being an NSA now depends on the laws and regulations of the state where you plan to work as a notary. Some states have fully embraced RON and require notaries to be able to perform remote online notarizations, while others have not yet adopted this technology. It’s best to check the specific requirements for your state to determine if RON is necessary for you to become a notary.
