More Information Regarding Remote Online Notarization (RON)
The maximum fee for RON notarizations performed by a certified Oregon RON notary is $25.00. It has come to our attention that some RON platform providers are charging a higher fee for RON notarizations if the signer(s) are located outside the U.S. during the notarization. Because RON fees are set in the temporary statute adopted on June 30, 2020, (House Bill 4212) certified Oregon RON notaries are not permitted to charge more for notarizations performed outside of the U.S.
