How to Get Started as a Remote Notary

Written By Brittany Clark

If you’re looking for a flexible, legitimate way to earn income from home, becoming a Remote Online Notary (RON) might be your next best move.
This career lets you serve clients entirely online — legally and securely — all while building your own business on your terms.

Here’s how to get started 👇

1. Meet Your State Requirements

Each state has different rules, but in Texas, you must:

  • Be an active Notary Public

  • Apply for Remote Online Notary authorization

  • Use an approved online notarization platform

2. Gather Your Tools

You’ll need:

  • A secure webcam and microphone

  • A strong internet connection

  • A digital certificate and e-seal

  • Access to a RON platform like BlueNotary, NotaryLive, or OneNotary

3. Understand Your Legal Responsibilities

Keep your client information secure, maintain proper logs, and verify IDs accurately. Your integrity and professionalism are what build trust and repeat business.

4. Build Your Brand

Create a simple but strong online presence:

  • Set up a Google Business Profile

  • Build your website (like ClarkApostilleServices.com)

  • Be consistent on social media

  • Share tips, reviews, and educational posts

5. Stay Consistent

You don’t need to have everything perfect on day one. What matters most is consistency, professionalism, and great customer experiences.
