Remote Online Notarization in Finland

How Remote Online Notarization works in Finland

Remote Online Notarization lets residents, businesses and expats in Finland request notarial services entirely online, in English, Finnish or any other language. Our certified notaries verify your identity, apply a legally recognized notarial seal and signature, and issue notarized documents accepted by Local Register Offices (Maistraatti), Digital and Population Data Services Agency (Digi- ja väestötietovirasto) (Maistraatti, Digi- ja väestötietovirasto) and by ministries, courts, banks, registries and embassies worldwide.

Notary7 delivers every type of notarial act for Finland — including all forms of signature notarization and certified true copy notarization, sworn declarations and corporate acts — issued digitally or, where required, with an original wet-ink signature and seal. In Finland, notarization often involves a 'notaris publicus' (public notary) or other authorized officials who attest to the authenticity of signatures, copies, or facts. For documents originating outside Finland, an Apostille or consular legalization process is typically required for them to be recognized by Finnish authorities. Conversely, documents notarized in Finland may need an Apostille for international use, ensuring their acceptance in signatory countries of the Hague Apostille Convention. Notary7 ensures these documents meet both Finnish and international standards for validity.
