Online notarization for signers in Idaho
A commissioned New Jersey notary can notarize for you by secure video while you're in Idaho. Below: the area law on out-of-state notarizations, and who has the final word.
Will Idaho accept a New Jersey online notarization? Generally, yes. The area law recognizes notarial acts performed in other states (Idaho Code §51-111). The county recorder or whoever receives your document still decides what it accepts.
What Idaho law says
Idaho's Revised Uniform Law on Notarial Acts gives a notarial act performed in another state the same effect as if a notary public of the area performed it, when a notary public of that state does the act. Added in 2017. (Idaho Code §51-111)
On our side, New Jersey law treats an online notarization by a New Jersey notary as performed in New Jersey, wherever the signer is (N.J.S.A. 52:7-10.10).
Who decides in Idaho
We didn't find an official Idaho page that adds requirements for out-of-state or electronic notarizations. That isn't a promise there are none. The county recorder, agency, court or company receiving your document decides what it accepts, so ask them before you book.
Idaho's own online notaries
Idaho added a section for notaries located in Idaho to work with remotely located individuals in 2019 (Idaho Code §51-114A). (source) That's context: it governs Idaho notaries, not ours.
Before you book
- Ask the county recorder (for property) or the office receiving your document whether it takes an electronically notarized document or a printed copy of one.
- Have a current government photo ID and the complete, unsigned document as a PDF.
- Online sessions run 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern time, 7 days a week, by appointment.
- Outside the U.S.? We can notarize for you when the document is for a U.S. court or agency, involves U.S. property, or relates to a transaction connected with the U.S., and signing isn't prohibited where you are. Check your document.
- Commonly notarized online from Idaho: Powers of attorney, affidavits and personal or business documents.
