Oregon remote online notarization applicants should already hold an active Oregon notary commission and prepare their remote notarization technology materials before submitting notice materials to the state.
This page is a practical submission checklist, not legal advice. Confirm current filing requirements with the Oregon Secretary of State before submitting.
Submission artifacts
| Artifact | Official source |
|---|---|
| Remote online notarization notice materials | Submitted through the Oregon Secretary of State process. |
| Existing Oregon notary commission | You must already be commissioned as an Oregon notary. |
| Seal image / sample digital notary stamp | Prepare the image file Oregon calls the digital notary stamp. In NotaryCentral, we refer to this image as a seal because it is the official electronic notary seal generated from your commission details. |
Seal image / sample digital notary stamp
Oregon asks for the stamp image associated with the technology you will use. In NotaryCentral, that official digital notary stamp image is labeled as a seal. Generate your Oregon notary seal from your commission details, then use that image as the sample digital notary stamp when needed.
To learn more about obtaining that seal image in NotaryCentral, use the Oregon certificate, seal, and stamp setup page: Digital Notary Certificates, Seal & Stamp for Oregon.
If you need the image without a white box behind it, Oregon seal generation in NotaryCentral uses a clear background automatically.
