Get Your Documents Apostilled Quick and Easy
We get your documents apostilled quickly and easily, even if you’re out of the country. I am a Texas remote online notary, and I will notarize your documents online. As soon as the session is over, I will print those documents and take them to the Texas Secretary of State. But first, let’s go over some qualifications.
Qualifications for Online Notarization
To use our online notarization service, you need to fulfill certain requirements:
- U.S. Identification Card: You must have a U.S. driver’s license or a U.S. passport.
- Social Security Number: You need a Social Security number to pass the Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA).
Why a Social Security Number?
The reason you need a Social Security number is to pass the Knowledge-Based Authentication, which involves a series of five questions based on your credit history. If you don’t have a Social Security number or credit history built up in the U.S., the online process might not work for you. But don’t worry! We have a workaround known as credible witness.
Steps to Get Your Documents Apostilled
Step 1: Go to Texas Apostille Notary
Step 2: Fill Out the Simple Form
The form will ask for basic information such as your name, email, phone number, the ID you’re going to use, the destination of the documents, and if you want same-day service. You can also upload your documents directly on the form.
Step 3: Receive a Customized Quote
After we receive your request, we will reply with a customized quote just for you. To confirm the appointment, you will click on the link in the email that says “Pay Here to Confirm Your Appointment.”
Step 4: Follow the Instructions
Follow the instructions exactly for our online notary session. During the session, you will need to upload your identification card and complete the Knowledge-Based Authentication.
Step 5: Online Notary Session
We will meet you online and go through the following steps:
- Upload Identification: You will upload your ID.
- Knowledge-Based Authentication: Answer five questions based on your Social Security number. You have two chances to pass, and you are allowed to miss one question. If you miss two questions, you must wait 24 hours to retake the authentication.
- Credential Analysis (CA): The system verifies your ID.
If You Pass the KBA and CA
Once you pass both the KBA and CA, you will join our online notary session, which is audio and video recorded. If more than one signer is involved, each signer needs a separate email and can be located anywhere in the world.
If there are two signers and they’re in the same location, we ask that they be in separate rooms to avoid audio feedback.
Signing the Documents
During the session, everyone will be able to see the documents. I will point out where to “Sign Here” and you can:
- Draw your signature with your mouse
- Use a previously saved PNG file
- Type your name, and the system will pick a font for you
- The notary will then sign and apply the digital stamp on the document. Once the document has been signed and sealed, it is tamper-evident and cannot be changed.
After the Online Notarization
Once our session is complete, you can automatically download your document. Meanwhile, I will download and print your document, then personally hand-carry it to the Texas Secretary of State, ensuring a seamless process.
Important Things to Remember
- Exclusivity to Texas: Only a Texas online notary can notarize your documents online for apostille in Texas.
