Our certificate states the act was performed using communication technology, as New Jersey law requires. [What it must say](/notary/remote-online-notarization-certificate-wording)

Signing from outside the U.S.? We can notarize 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](/notary/abroad-check).

Most U.S. recipients accept a remotely notarized document; check with whoever will receive it. [What to ask them](/notary/will-my-online-notarization-be-accepted) · [Several signers](/notary/online-notarization-multiple-signers)

Documents for use in Spain

## Apostille or remote notary?

Under the Apostille Convention, which took effect in Spain on 25 September 1978, a U.S. public document for use there is typically apostilled. Embassy legalization is the older route. Whoever receives the document makes the final call.

Signing from Spain? A video session with us still needs a U.S. connection, such as U.S. property or a U.S. court or agency matter. See [apostille services](/notary/apostille-services) for documents going the other way.

Embassy option

## The U.S. embassy in Madrid

The U.S. Embassy is in Madrid. The same list of missions adds consulates in Barcelona.

How a video session runs is covered once, on [the hub page](/notary/us-citizens-abroad). For what a consular post can do, read [the State Department's notarial services page](https://travel.state.gov/en/replace-certify/authenticate-documents/authentication-abroad.html).

This is not legal advice, and Spain's own rules are outside what we know. The office that receives your document can say what it accepts.

Looking for a particular document? See [notarizing a power of attorney, deed, affidavit or bank form from abroad](/notary/abroad-documents).
