Digital Notarization for Banks, Credit Unions & Trust Departments

Secure, compliant notarization for high-value financial documents—without branch visits, delays, or paper handling.

The Challenge for Financial Institutions

Financial institutions routinely require notarized documents, often under time pressure and with strict compliance expectations:

Trust and estate documents
Affidavits and sworn statements
Powers of attorney
Loan servicing and post-closing documents
Wealth management authorizations

Traditional notarization introduces friction:

Customers must travel to a branch or coordinate with outside notaries

Remote or out-of-state customers cause delays and rescheduling

Paper workflows increase error rates and operational overhead

Internal teams lack a clear digital audit trail

USANotary modernizes this process while respecting the risk and regulatory environment financial institutions operate in.

How It Works for Financial Institutions

1

Initiate the Request

An authorized staff member (branch, trust department, loan servicing, or operations) initiates a notarization request through the USANotary portal.

They select the document type, such as:

  • Power of attorney
  • Trust or estate document
  • Affidavit or declaration
  • Loan or servicing-related form
2

Invite Customers & Signers

Customers receive a secure invitation to join the notarization session.

Additional signers (co-trustees, spouses, authorized agents) can be added.

All parties can join remotely from their own devices—no branch visit required.

3

Complete & Record

The notary verifies identity, witnesses signatures, and applies the digital notarial seal.

The finalized notarized document is immediately available as a secure PDF.

Records are retained to support internal audits, compliance reviews, and dispute resolution.
