Alabama Uses RIN (Remote Ink Notarization), Not RON
Confused about remote notarization in Alabama? Many people think Alabama uses the same electronic RON process as other states, but that's not the case. Understanding the difference ensures your documents are processed correctly and legally recognized.
RIN (Remote Ink Notarization) - What Alabama Uses:
- You sign with wet ink on physical paper during the video call
- We apply a physical notary seal to the document
- Document is mailed between you and the notary
- Results in a traditional paper document with physical seal
RON (Remote Online Notarization) - Not Used in Alabama:
- Everything is electronic (e-signatures, e-seals, e-documents)
- No physical documents or mailing required
- Fully digital process from start to finish
Alabama's hybrid RIN process combines the convenience of remote video witnessing with the security and legal recognition of traditional wet-ink signatures and physical notary seals.

After notarization, your completed document is either returned to you or sent directly to the designated recipient, based on your instructions.
