1. How To Notarize Online in New Hampshire with NotaryLive 

Gather everything you need

To begin notarizing a document online with NotaryLive, all you need is:

• the document you are looking to get notarized
• a device connected to the internet with camera/microphone capabilities
• and either a valid driver’s license or passport (to verify your identity)

Uploading Your Document

Firstly, you will begin by uploading your document. You can either do this from your desktop or by using the QR code we provide you during the session.

Verifying Your Identity 

After making sure you have everything you need, use your driver's license, passport and any other form of government ID to verify your identity. You will upload a picture of your ID front and back. Make sure to follow the correct requirements to do this.

Answer the KBA Questions

After uploading your ID, you will be brought to the KBA Questions. Which are questions you should get correct (especially if you are who you say you are). 

Questions can be from where you live, where you work, or car model. 

Connecting with the live notary

Once your identity is confirmed using industry standard ID verification technology, you will be connected with a notary, live via webcam.

Notary will verify your identity

After connecting, the licensed online notary will also be prompted to verify the identity of the signers before moving forward with the notarization process.

They do this by comparing your information/ID to the person they see before them on camera (you). 

Get your document notarized 

The notary will witness and affirm your signature, apply their own digital seal, then voilà, you are finished notarizing online!

Access your notarized document

After the session is completed, you can access the notarized document(s) through an email confirmation or your customer dashboard to download them with ease.
