GEN-518 Traditional versus Remote Notarization
GEN-518 Traditional versus Remote Notarization
New laws and technology have created an advanced method for notary public professionals to provide notarial services to the general public, government and businesses. Notarial services can now also be provided remotely. However, the need for notaries to provide services utilizing the traditional method of in-person, pen and paper still remains. This session describes the characteristics of each method and incorporates the core notarial principle of deterring fraud.
