Walang nailathalang pahina ng pag-track ng status para sa opisinang ito.
Serbisyong Notarial Online na Malayuan (Remote Online Notarization)
- Katayuan
Pinapahintulutan dito ang remote online notarization.
- Legal na Batayan
D.C. Code § 1-1231.13a (RULONA, D.C. Law 22-189), remote provisions added/amended by D.C. Law 24-178 (eff. Sept. 21, 2022) and D.C. Law 24-194 (eff. Dec. 13, 2022); implementing rules 17 DCMR 2416–2417 (per NNA, adopted Nov. 3 — year not confirmed on an official page) (unverified)
- Ano ang Dapat Irehistro ng Notary Public
No separate RON endorsement, but before the first remote act the notary must notify the Mayor and identify the technologies to be used (D.C. Code § 1-1231.13a(k); 17 DCMR 2416.1). Separate electronic-notary endorsement: $30 application fee + mandatory training (per NNA/E-Notary Handbook)
- Paano Kinikilala ang Lumagda
Personal knowledge (§ 1-1231.06(a)); or credible witness on oath/affirmation; or at least 2 different types of identity proofing (§ 1-1231.13a(b)(1)). Per 17 DCMR 2417 (via NNA): credential analysis (automated authenticity testing + visual comparison) and dynamic KBA (min. 5 questions, 80% pass, 5-minute window). Biometric not specified
- Pinakamataas na Bayad
Karaniwang Aktong Notarial: $5.00 USD
Walang nakatalang pinakamataas na bayad dito para sa isang aktong notarial na malayuan. Ang kawalan ng limitasyon ay hindi katumbas ng “walang limitasyon” — nasa mga tala sa ibaba ang dahilan.
- Mula sa pinagmulan
Max RON fee: no statutory cap found; E-Notary Handbook: e-notaries "may charge a reasonable fee based on the electronic technology... if that fee is agreed to in advance... and itemized separately" (unverified whether a numeric RON cap exists in rules). "Notaries may charge up to $5 per notarial act" (ONCA FAQ). Conflict: DC E-Notary Handbook (July 2023) states "E-Notaries cannot notarize documents remotely in Washington, DC. At present, all parties are required to be present" — predates the remote-notarization rulemaking cited by NNA (17 DCMR 2416–2417); statute clearly authorizes remote acts
