Notarize a Deed of Sale Online
A deed of absolute sale records the transfer of ownership from seller to buyer. For motor vehicles, the LTO requires a notarized deed before it will transfer the OR/CR. For real property, notarization converts the deed into a public document, which is required before the Registry of Deeds will register the transfer.
Buyer and seller in different cities
The most painful part of a sale is usually getting both parties in front of the same notary. With remote electronic notarization, the buyer can appear from Quezon City and the seller from Cebu in one video session. The electronic notary verifies both identities, witnesses both signatures, and completes the notarial act.
What you need
- The deed of sale in PDF with complete details of the property and price
- Valid government-issued ID for every signatory
- For vehicles: a copy of the OR/CR helps avoid errors in the deed
Note on real estate: deeds involving land carry additional registration and tax steps after notarization (BIR, transfer tax, Registry of Deeds). We recommend confirming with the registry concerned whether it accepts electronically notarized conveyances before booking, and our team can advise during scheduling.
