Electronic notarization launched

Actress and host Jasmine Curtis-Smith demonstrates how remote electronic notarization works during the launch of NotarioPH on Oct. 19, 2026 completing an Affidavit of Loss from her home in Makati while lawyer Pauline De La Peña notarized the document remotely from Ortigas. The live demonstration showed the process from uploading the affidavit, reviewing the notarial fee and paying online to completing identity and liveness checks, signing the document during a video session, and receiving the notarized copy electronically. In an exclusive interview with The Manila Times, NotarioPH CEO and co-founder Crisma Maxwell explained how the platform aims to make electronic notarization more accessible by allowing users to find Supreme Court-commissioned electronic notaries public, check their availability and book sessions online.

00:00Hi Jasmine, good morning. Thanks for joining.
00:04Good morning, attorney. I'm really glad that I can do this from home.
00:08I have your affidavit of loss open, so I'll set it up for signing and it will show on your
00:15screen in a moment.
00:17Sounds good.
00:22Okay, notarian PH assigns the document number, page, book, and series from my electronic notarial book.
00:30I will set half minutes to sign her and place her signature field, and as the notary, I sign last.
00:43Okay, I think I can see it, so I'll confirm the attestation and review it once more and then sign.
00:52But before I proceed, I will stop sharing my screen first for privacy purposes.
00:57Shampra, as my signature and other sensitive information may be visible during this signing process.
01:03Let's move in a second.
01:07Alright, should be done.
01:11Okay, thank you. I can see the signed document on my end, so I'll be completing the notarization.
01:18And again, this entry will go into my electronic notarial book, and you will have to sign that as well,
01:23Jasmine.
01:27Perfect. The session had ended, and the notarial act is in my electronic notarial book. Jasmine, your affidavit of loss
01:35has been notarized.
01:36It should be emailed to you, and you can also open it in your notarial PH account.
01:42Alright, allow me to check.
01:46Yes, I have it already. It's in my notarized page.
01:50And I'm so happy because I started this at home in Makati and just finished this with Attorney Pauline in
01:57Ortigas.
01:58Attorney, thank you. Thank you very much.
02:01You're welcome, Jasmine. So that completes our first demonstration.
02:04Thank you for trusting Notarial PH by Kwan B. Lilo.

02:53Court.

03:28Ngayon, sa mga interesadong magpanotarize through electronic notarization, ang kaibahan
03:35lang naman po nito sa traditional na notarization is that mas convenient po sa inyo.
03:41The fees, very minimal lang naman po yung difference.
03:44Ang kaibahan din is that, hindi na kayo pupunta sa notarist public.
