All signers must present a valid, government-issued photo ID, such as a driver's license, passport, or state-issued identification card.

Can a notary prepare my estate planning documents?

No. A notary public cannot draft legal documents or provide legal advice unless they are also a licensed attorney. Your documents should be prepared by an attorney or another qualified professional before your appointment.

On Vacation? Here's How to Get Documents Notarized Without Changing Your Plans

July 08, 20265 min read

On Vacation?

Here's How to Get Documents Notarized Without Changing Your Plans

You're halfway through your vacation when an email pops up:

"We need your signature as soon as possible."

Maybe it's paperwork for a home sale. Maybe your attorney sent an important document that needs to be notarized. Maybe your child needs a travel consent form before an upcoming trip.

Just a few years ago, this could have meant scrambling to find a local notary, changing your travel plans, or delaying important paperwork.

Today, there's a much easier solution.

Thanks to online notarization, you can often get documents notarized from your hotel room, vacation rental, business trip, or almost anywhere with an internet connection.

Travel no longer has to put your life on hold.

Can You Really Get Documents Notarized While Traveling?

Yes.

Many documents can now be notarized online using secure video technology and identity verification.

Instead of searching for a local office or trying to fit an appointment into your vacation schedule, you simply connect with an online notary through a secure video call and complete the process remotely.

Many people are surprised to learn they can often notarize documents while traveling from places such as:

  • Hotels

  • Vacation rentals

  • Airports

  • Cruise ports

  • Business trips

  • Family visits

  • Another state

  • Even another country in many situations

If you have internet access and a valid photo ID, you may already have everything you need.

Common Documents Travelers Need Notarized

Travel doesn't stop important life events from happening.

Some of the most common documents people need notarized while away from home include:

Real Estate Documents

Buying, selling, or refinancing a property doesn't always happen on your schedule.

Many travelers use online notarization to keep their transactions moving without interrupting their trip.

Power of Attorney Documents

Sometimes family emergencies happen unexpectedly.

A power of attorney may need to be completed quickly, even if you're hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Affidavits and Legal Forms

Certain legal documents require notarization before they can be processed.

Online notarization allows you to complete them without searching for a local office.

Business Agreements

Business doesn't stop when you're traveling.

Entrepreneurs and professionals frequently use remote notarization to keep projects moving while away from the office.

School Forms

Parents occasionally need notarized school paperwork while traveling or relocating.

Travel Consent Forms for Minors

When children travel without both parents, some destinations or travel providers may request notarized consent forms.

How Does Online Notarization Work?

The process is surprisingly simple.

Step 1: Schedule Your Appointment

Choose a time that works for your schedule here: https://blueink.miami/book-ron or give us a call at

Because appointments happen online, there is often more flexibility than with traditional notary appointments.

Step 2: Verify Your Identity and Meet Your Notary Online

You'll show a government-issued photo ID and connect with your notary through a secure video session.

Your notary will guide you through the process and answer any questions along the way.

Step 3: Review and Sign Your Documents

You'll review your documents and sign them electronically during the session.

Once completed, your notarized documents are ready to move forward.

Many appointments take less time than driving across town to find an available notary.

What Do You Need for an Online Notarization Appointment?

Most people already have everything they need.

Typically, you'll only need:

  • A smartphone, tablet, or computer

  • Internet access

  • A camera and microphone
