Oklahoma e-signature and notarization law

Oklahoma's electronic signature law: the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (Okla. Stat. tit. 12A, §§ 15-101 et seq.). Electronic signatures are also valid under the federal ESIGN Act for most transactions. Some documents are excluded, such as wills, divorce and adoption documents, court orders and certain official notices.

The fuller federal list is in our guide to e-signing in the United States.

What Oklahoma's e-signature law does not cover

Title 12A, section 15-103 says the Act does not apply to a transaction to the extent it is governed by:

  • A law governing the creation and execution of wills, codicils or testamentary trusts.
  • The Uniform Commercial Code, other than Sections 1-107 and 1-206 of Title 12A, Article 2 and Article 2A.
  • The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act.
  • A consumer protection law of Oklahoma, to the extent specified by rule by the Administrator of the Department of Consumer Credit.

Remote online notarization in Oklahoma

Remote online notarization: allowed in Oklahoma since January 1, 2020.

Oklahoma's Remote Online Notary Act is in Title 49. A notary public physically located in Oklahoma and authorized to perform remote online notarizations may perform a notarial act by means of communication technology for a remotely located individual.

Authorization is a separate step: the notary must register with the Secretary of State and receive written authorization from the Secretary of State.

The authority was added by Laws 2019, chapter 338, section 6, effective January 1, 2020.

SignAndGo doesn't notarize documents. A commissioned notary does that, using a remote notarization platform where the state allows it.
