Online Notary in Canada

An online or virtual notary appointment lets you have certain documents commissioned over a secure video (audio-visual) connection instead of attending in person.

Ontario permits the remote commissioning of affidavits and statutory declarations by audio-visual technology, provided the notary can verify your identity and see you sign live over video. During the appointment we connect by video, verify your valid government-issued photo ID, administer the oath or affirmation, and watch you sign in real time before completing the jurat and applying our seal. This is convenient for clients who travel, live outside Ottawa, have mobility limitations, or simply prefer not to attend in person. Not every document can be done remotely — certified true copies, for example, require an in-person visit — so book online or call and we will confirm whether your specific document qualifies before your appointment. Because the appointment happens over video, an online notary appointment works the same whether you are in Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, Mississauga, London, Windsor or a smaller Ontario town with no notary of its own: the commissioner is a Notary Public for the Province of Ontario, and an Ontario document is commissioned under Ontario law. Clients can also join the video appointment from elsewhere in Canada or from abroad.
