## What you'll need to record it

1. **The notarized document itself.** An online notarization produces an electronic document. Polk County accepts electronic recording through CSC Recording Solutions, eRecording Partners Network, File and Go, Hopdox, Indecomm Global Services, QuickDeeds.com, SimpliFile, so a title company or eRecording vendor can usually submit the electronic file directly.
2. **Recording fees.** Fees are set by the county and state and change; check the current fee schedule on the [official Polk County Clerk of Courts & Comptroller, Official Records site](https://www.polkclerkfl.gov/184/Official-Records) before you submit.
3. **Any required state forms** for your document type (for example, transfer or property-tax forms for deeds). The county site lists what it requires.
4. **Confirmation the recipient accepts it.** The receiving office or party decides whether to accept a remotely notarized document. If unsure, call the office before your notary session.
