Electronic & Remote Online Notarization (RON)

When the remotely appearing individual is personally known to the electronic notary, satisfactory evidence of identity may be established by:

A

Attestation by the electronic notary that the individual is personally known, provided the other requirements of the Part are met

B

Skipping communication technology entirely

C

Any unsigned email from the signer

D

A county clerk's authentication certificate

Correct Answer

A. Attestation by the electronic notary that the individual is personally known, provided the other requirements of the Part are met

AI Explanation

Personal knowledge remains an alternative for remote identity if the rest of the framework is satisfied. 19 NYCRR §182.5(d) states that, provided all other requirements of the Part are met, attestation by an electronic notary that an individual appearing through communication technology is personally known to them is satisfactory evidence of identity. Not to be confused with §182.5(c), which requires identity verification, credential analysis, and identity proofing when the person is not personally known.
