Union Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal launches Notary Portal

Union Minister for Law and Justice, Arjun Ram Meghwal, launched the new Notary Portal in New Delhi. Addressing the occasion, Mr. Meghwal hailed the launch of the dedicated Notary Portal as an important step forward towards providing a paperless, faceless, and efficient system—a step towards the goal of digital India. The Minister further said that this portal has been made in a user-friendly manner and will help the Notaries and the public.

The Notary Portal provides an online interface between the notaries and



the government for various services like submission of applications for appointment as notaries, issuance and renewal of Certificates of Practice, change of practice area, and submission of annual returns. With the launch of the Notary Portal, the Central Notaries will not be required to submit applications and requests in physical mode. They can submit applications online, monitor their progress, and download digitally signed Certificates of Practice from their Digilocker accounts.
