California has approved Remote Online Notarization, but it will not become operational until January 1, 2030.

RON is available, but real estate transactions are excluded.

Four states currently have no RON laws:

Guam and Puerto Rico also currently have no RON laws.
What Expanding RON Coverage Means for Businesses
As Remote Online Notarization becomes available across more states, organizations have greater flexibility to build consistent digital notarization processes across their operations.
For businesses working across multiple markets, broader RON coverage can help reduce reliance on location-specific, in-person processes and make it easier for teams, customers, and transaction partners to complete notarizations remotely when permitted.
With ProNotary, organizations can manage notarization workflows within their own environment while maintaining visibility into documents, participants, session records, and transaction history.
ProNotary will continue monitoring these changes and updating its approved-state coverage as additional approvals become available.
