How to get a personal guarantee notarized online

Who signs, and which notarial act

Each guarantor signs. A spouse sometimes signs a consent too, if the lender asks.

Usually an acknowledgment by each guarantor.

Ask the recipient first

Only the person or office receiving the personal guarantee can say whether an electronic notarization works for them. Ask:

• The lender or landlord: must the guarantee be notarized, and will you accept an electronic notarization?
• Must every owner sign, or only some?
• Do you want the spouse's signature as well?

A guarantee puts personal assets on the line. The notary can't explain what you're agreeing to. Read it, and ask your attorney or accountant, before the session.

Doing it online, step by step

1. Get the final document. From the lender or landlord.
2. Confirm who signs. Each guarantor, and any spouse the lender wants.
3. Book the signers. One per person, from their own devices.
4. Sign on video. Each shows ID and signs.
5. Return it. As the lender instructs.

Mistakes that stop the session

Signing for a co-owner. Each guarantor signs for themselves.

Signing as the company instead of personally. A personal guarantee is signed personally, not as an officer.

Unread terms. Ask questions before the session.

What it costs

$50 for the session, plus $10 for each extra signer. Any other fee shows in the booking form before you confirm. If a witness is needed, a video witness can be added in the booking form at $40 each.

Open 7 am to 9 pm ET, every day, by appointment. Have a current photo ID, a device with a camera, and the unsigned PDF.

Signing from outside the U.S.? New Jersey allows it only when the document is for a U.S. court, agency or other U.S. entity, involves property in the U.S., or relates to a transaction substantially connected with the U.S., and signing isn't prohibited where you are (N.J.S.A. 52:7-10.10). Check your document.
