What New Hampshire statute governs remote online notarization (RON)?
Answer: RSA 455-G
RSA 455-G is the New Hampshire statute that establishes the framework for remote online notarization.
To perform remote online notarizations in New Hampshire, a notary must first:
Answer: Register with the Secretary of State as a RON notary and use an approved platform
NH notaries must register with the Secretary of State and use a state-approved RON technology platform before performing remote notarizations.
During a NH remote online notarization, the signer must appear:
Answer: Via real-time audio-visual communication on an approved platform
RON requires a real-time, two-way audio-visual connection so the notary can see and communicate with the signer.
For NH RON notarizations, where must the signer physically be located during the session?
Answer: May be anywhere in the world as permitted by NH law and the platform
NH RON law allows signers to be located anywhere in the world, subject to the notary's discretion and platform capabilities.
What electronic tool replaces the traditional ink stamp for NH electronic notarizations?
Answer: A tamper-evident electronic seal applied through the approved platform
Electronic notarizations use a tamper-evident electronic seal, often embedded through the RON platform, that locks the document against post-notarization alteration.
Who is responsible for ensuring that the RON technology platform used for NH notarizations meets state requirements?
Answer: The notary must use only state-approved platforms
The notary bears responsibility for using only platforms approved by the NH Secretary of State that meet the statutory technical requirements.
