DocuSign Notary review
A complete remote notarization service with clear on-demand pricing and no free plan.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
DocuSign Notary provides remote online notarization for organizations and individuals. It supports organizations notarizing documents at scale through in-house notaries or an on-demand notary pool, while individuals can access on-demand notarization through DocuSign's OneNotary partner. The service combines photo ID and knowledge-based identity verification with live audio-visual sessions, electronic signing, electronic notarization, and multi-device support for multiple signers. Business Notary solutions are positioned for organizations notarizing 200 or more documents annually.
The published on-demand plan costs $25 USD per notarization as a one-time charge. It includes a live notary session, identity verification, electronic signing, and an audio-visual session. This makes the per-transaction price straightforward for occasional needs, but organizations seeking business Notary solutions must contact sales. There is no free plan, so teams evaluating the service should account for paid usage from the start. The $25 price applies to on-demand notarization provided through the OneNotary partner rather than serving as a general business-plan price.
DocuSign Notary is a strong fit for organizations already using DocuSign eSignature, with a direct integration alongside its Notary API. Its records layer includes tamper-evident certificates of completion, audio-visual recordings, electronic journals, and audit trails containing completion certificates, recordings, and journals. Those capabilities suit workflows that need identity proofing, live sessions, signing, and durable transaction records in one service. Organizations that need API connectivity or multiple signer devices have a clear fit; buyers seeking a free entry tier or a fully self-serve business purchase should consider a different option.
