FAQs
Applicant-ENP enrollment questions
Enrollment, fees, account features, commissioning, and NotarioPH policies for lawyers applying as Electronic Notaries Public.
Who may enroll?
A lawyer who intends to apply for an Electronic Notarial Commission may enroll with NotarioPH as an applicant-ENP, subject to NotarioPH's verification and onboarding requirements.
The Supreme Court's current requirements for an ENP include:
- Membership in the Philippine Bar in good standing;
- Compliance with MCLE requirements;
- Compliance with Unified Legal Aid Service (ULAS);
- Philippine residency of at least one year;
- A regular place of work or business anywhere in the Philippines; and
- No final conviction for a crime involving moral turpitude.
What is the NotarioPH enrollment process?
Step 1 — Create a NotarioPH account
Complete the NotarioPH ENP registration form and provide the required professional information.
Step 2 — Complete identity and professional verification
NotarioPH will verify the information submitted and may request supporting documents.
Step 3 — Complete ENP orientation/onboarding
The applicant receives an orientation on the NotarioPH platform, its electronic notarization workflow, security features, compliance requirements, and applicable policies.
Step 4 — Obtain the NotarioPH Electronic Facility Provider Certification
Upon satisfying the applicable NotarioPH requirements, NotarioPH issues the Electronic Facility Provider Certification required for the applicant's ENP application, subject to NotarioPH's current procedures.
Step 5 — Apply for an Electronic Notarial Commission
The lawyer submits the required application through the Philippine Judiciary Platform/eNotary Portal and completes the Supreme Court's commissioning process. The Supreme Court currently lists the Electronic Facility Provider Certification among the documentary requirements for an ENP application.
Step 6 — Submit proof of commission to NotarioPH
Once the Electronic Notarial Commission has been issued, the lawyer submits the applicable commission information to NotarioPH for verification.
Step 7 — Activate the ENP account
Upon successful verification, the applicant's NotarioPH account may be upgraded to an Active ENP Account, allowing the lawyer to use the applicable NotarioPH electronic notarization functions.
NotarioPH's Electronic Facility Provider Certification is intended to confirm that the applicant has completed the applicable NotarioPH enrollment/orientation requirements and is enrolled with NotarioPH as an ENP user.
Expected NotarioPH processing time
[INSERT NOTARIOPH APPROVED PROCESSING TIME]
For example:
- Standard processing: Within [X] business days after NotarioPH receives the applicant's complete requirements.
- Applications with incomplete, inconsistent, or unverifiable information may require additional processing time.
Important distinction
The NotarioPH certification timeline is separate from the Supreme Court's ENP commissioning timeline.
NotarioPH cannot guarantee the time required by the Supreme Court to review, hear, approve, or issue an Electronic Notarial Commission.
The Supreme Court's published ENP process includes account registration, submission of the eNotary application and documents, processing, posting of notice, virtual summary hearing/opposition, action on the application, and issuance of the commission if approved.
