When I perform a remote online notarization for out-of-state signers, would I enter their state and county where the signer is location, or where I am located? — P.V., Minnesota
You must be referring to completing the venue portion of the certificate for the remote online notarial act. You always will enter state and county where you are located when you performed the remote online notarization.
Hotline answers are based on the laws in the state where the question originated and may not reflect the laws of other states. If in doubt, always refer to your own state statutes. – The Editors
