Abstract

In this article, the author considers the development of digital technologies, the development of an electronic notary system, as well as national and international experience in this area, and the work carried out to create an electronic notary system. There are hypotheses that the global pandemic of a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) has accelerated the digitization of all areas of the world, including the notarial sphere. The article analyzes the current state of the electronic notary on a global and national scale. Opinions about its prospects are expressed as well. The notary should be recognized as a unique legal institution in the mechanism of regulation of public relations. The number of services they provide is growing day by day. In 2021, we can observe significant changes that will affect notary actions – some of them are planned to be transferred to scientific interdisciplinary research in a remote format. In the conditions of the digital economy, the notary has already quite modern services that fully ensure the rights and legitimate interests of citizens, and help to conduct the necessary transaction, while saving both their time and material costs, without wasting time on trips to unnecessary authorities to receive or deliver the necessary documents. And over time, information technologies will only improve, because the notary does not stand still, and every day more and more changes are being made to legislation that simplifies obtaining certain notary services, and new electronic legal instruments are being introduced, which indicates the constant development of the digitalization process.
