Is online notarization legal in Alabama? Yes, an online notarization is valid and enforceable in Alabama because of interstate recognition. Even though Alabama does not have a remote online notarization (RON) law, Alabama recognizes notarizations that are properly performed by notaries of other states.
One of the most common mistakes that notaries make is not printing or signing their name exactly as it appears on their notary commission.
Alabama requires all notaries to authenticate all notarial acts by placing an Alabama notary stamp on documents they notarize. Documents that do not include an Alabama notary stamp cannot be recorded in county clerks' offices and may be rejected by the document receiver.
Even though Alabama does not currently authorize its own notaries to perform online notary, Alabama law recognizes and accepts online notarizations performed by out-of-state notaries under their state rules (Alabama Code Section 35-4-26, 35-4-27, and 12-21-4.)
Yes, a notary can legally notarize out-of-state documents as long as they are acting within the boundaries of their jurisdiction and in ance with all local state requirements.
Beginning September 1, 2023, the law sets minimum application requirements and mandates that both new and renewal applicants complete a pre-commission training program prepared by the Alabama Probate Judges Association and the Alabama Law Institute.
The short answer is yes, notary publics are legally allowed to notarize documents from any state as long the notarial act is conducted within the geographical boundaries of the notary's state of commission.
