[KS] How to get your RON/Electronic Endorsement in Kansas

Before you can use the Notary Hub platform by Everything Legal, you will need to be currently commissioned as a traditional notary.

Note: If you do not already have a notary license, you will need to complete that as your first step.

Obtain your Digital Certificate, Electronic Signature & Digital Stamp from our partners at SSL through our all-in-one platform!

Everything legal also provides you with the required Electronic Journal for documenting your remote online notarizations.

Before performing a RON, a notary is required to complete training and pass a test.

Training and testing are provided at no cost by the Secretary of State’s office. A notary will be able to complete the training and test at their convenience, and a certificate will generate upon successful completion of the test, that the notary must submit as part of their registration with the Secretary of State to provide RON.

Prior to performing RON a notary is required to notify the Secretary of State of the technology the notary intends to use (Notaryhub.com)

• Kansas notaries who have an active commission and wish to perform RONs may submit Form NC [Notary Change] (submit online here) at any time prior to their commission expiration date.
• Include a copy of the certificate generated upon completion of training and passage of the exam
• A fee of $20 is required
• A notary’s RON registration runs concurrent with the notary’s four-year commission
