  1. What is the difference between electronic notarization (e-notarization) and remote online notarization (RON) in Vermont?

    Answer: E-notarization uses electronic signatures with in-person appearance; RON uses video technology for remote appearance

    E-notarization involves the notary and signer physically present using electronic signatures, while RON allows the signer to appear remotely via video.

  2. In a Vermont remote online notarization, credential analysis is used to:

    Answer: Verify the authenticity of the signer's government-issued ID through technology

    Credential analysis uses technology to verify that a signer's government-issued ID is genuine and has not been altered.

  3. If a remote signer fails knowledge-based authentication during a Vermont RON session, the notary should:

    Answer: Refuse to complete the notarization

    If a signer fails KBA, the notary must refuse to complete the RON because identity cannot be sufficiently verified.

  4. Which statement is true about a Vermont notary's authority to perform RON for signers located outside Vermont?

    Answer: The notary may notarize for out-of-state signers as long as the notary is in Vermont

    Vermont notaries may perform RON for signers located anywhere, provided the notary is physically present in Vermont during the session.

  5. Under Vermont RON rules, what must be included in the electronic notarial certificate?

    Answer: A statement that the notarization was performed using audio-video technology

    Vermont RON certificates must include a statement indicating the notarial act was performed using audio-video communication technology.

  6. Can a Vermont notary perform an in-person electronic notarization without registering for RON?

    Answer: Yes, if the notary has an electronic signature and seal

    An in-person electronic notarization uses an electronic signature and seal while both parties are physically present, and does not require RON registration.
