Remote Notarization Service for Canadian Students: A Convenient and Quick Solution
For students planning to study in Canada, getting various documents notarized is an essential part of the process. The traditional way of notarization requires you to visit the embassy, consulate or notary office in person, which is time-consuming and laborious. Nowadays, the emergence of remote video notarization service provides a more convenient option for international students.
What is remote video notarization?
Remote video notarization is an online notarization method that allows Chinese citizens abroad to have their identity verified, documents signed and notarized by a notary public in China through real-time audio and video communication technology. This service allows international students to complete the required notarization procedures without having to return to their home country.
