Get a document notarized over live video in minutes, from anywhere. Here are the most trusted online notaries, ranked.
Notarize connects you to a commissioned notary by live video in minutes, any time of day, with no appointment. It’s the most established name in online notarization, and its signing flow is the smoothest we’ve seen.
FedEx Office Online Notary connects you with a commissioned notary 24/7, booked through FedEx. Most FedEx stores no longer offer walk-in notary service and point customers online instead.
Staples offers online notarization plus kiosks in select stores, so you can print, notarize and ship in one trip.

BlueNotary is built mainly as a platform for businesses and notaries, so the consumer experience is less polished than Notarize’s. Its on-demand price is $25 for one seal, with extra seals at $8.
