Every Florida notarization on NotaryChain enforces the FL DoS requirements automatically.
Photo ID + biometric match + 5-question knowledge-based auth (KBA)
Retained 10 years on tamper-proof storage
Every FL notary on the platform is fully bonded & state-trained
Tamper-evident blockchain seal exceeds FL's technology mandate
Real notaries, real commissions, every one verified.
Standards for electronic and online notarization. We hold ourselves to Florida's RON standard line-by-line — here is exactly how the platform meets each provision.
kba_routes + enhanced KBA serve 5 questions, 5 options each.
LexisNexis InstantID Q&A adapter built; activates on credentials. Mock envelope until then.
120s server-enforced session expiry on both KBA flows.
Hard gate: 4 of 5 correct required.
Max 2 attempts / 24h enforced.
Retry question set shares ≤3 prompts with the prior attempt.
Credential analysis is an FL pre-seal gate; output surfaced in readiness detail.
720p minimum enforced; encrypted Daily.co transport.
SHA-256 anchored on Hedera Consensus Service (per s.117.021).
Maintained by the RON service provider; see provider self-certification.
Required at notary onboarding via an approved provider.
PII used only to facilitate the notarial act; biometrics encrypted at rest (S3 SSE); no sale/transfer.
Status reflects the platform's implementation against the live statute. Items marked "attested" are maintained by the registered RON service provider or completed at notary onboarding; "pending credentials" activates real third-party identity data once provisioned.
Do I need to be in Florida to use a FL notary?
No. Florida law allows out-of-state principals when the document concerns Florida property or law (e.g., a deed for a FL home, an online will under FL Stat. 732.522). The platform asks you to confirm the FL nexus during the ceremony.
What's the knowledge-based authentication quiz?
Florida requires identity proofing beyond an ID photo. You'll answer 5 dynamic questions about your background (drawn from public records) within 2 minutes. You must get 4 of 5 correct. It's how FL law catches impersonation.
Are online wills really enforceable in Florida?
Yes. Florida Statute 732.522 enables electronic wills since 2020. The notarization must include 2 witnesses, all on video with you simultaneously. NotaryChain handles the witness flow automatically.
How long are records kept?
All audio-video recordings, journal entries, and supporting evidence are retained for 10 years — Florida's mandatory minimum. We store on tamper-proof AWS with Hedera blockchain anchoring, retrievable on subpoena.
Is NotaryChain a registered RONSP in Florida?
Yes. NotaryChain is a registered Remote Online Notarization Service Provider with the FL Department of State.
