(1) If a law requires, as a condition for recording by the county clerk upon the records relating to real property, that a document be an original, be on paper or another tangible medium, or be in writing, the requirement shall be satisfied by an electronic document that complies with the requirements of KRS 423.300 to 423.455 or this section. (2) If a law requires, as a condition for recording, that a document be signed, the requirement is satisfied by an electronic signature. (3) A requirement that a document or a signature associated with a document be notarized, acknowledged, verified, witnessed, or made under oath is satisfied if the electronic signature of the person authorized to perform that act, and all other information required to be included, is attached to or logically associated with the document or signature. A physical or electronic image of a stamp, impression, or seal need not accompany an electronic signature. (4) As used in this section, "paper document" means a document that is received by the clerk in a form that is not electronic. A clerk: (a) May receive, index, store, archive, and transmit electronic documents; (b) May provide for access to, and search and retrieval of, documents and information by electronic means; (c) Who accepts electronic documents for recording shall continue to accept paper documents as authorized by state law and shall place entries for both types of documents in the same index; (d) May convert paper documents accepted for recording into electronic form; (e) May convert into electronic form information recorded before the clerk began to record electronic documents; (f) May accept electronically any fee, levy, or tax that the clerk is authorized to collect; and (g) May agree with other officials of a state or a political subdivision of that state, or of the United States, on procedures or processes to facilitate the electronic satisfaction of prior approvals and conditions precedent to recording and the electronic payment of fees, levies, and taxes that the clerk is authorized to accept. (5) This section shall be known and may be cited as the "Uniform Real Property Electronic Recording Act." In applying and construing this section, consideration shall be given to the need to promote uniformity of the law with respect to its subject matter among the states that enact it. ## Nearby sections - [KRS § 382.010 382.010 Estate -- Owner may convey -- When deed or will necessary](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.010.md) - [KRS § 382.020 382.020 Deeds of release](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.020.md) - [KRS § 382.030 382.030 General warranty -- Words that constitute](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.030.md) - [KRS § 382.040 382.040 Special warranty -- Words that constitute](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.040.md) - [KRS § 382.060 382.060 Conveyance to dead person vests title in his heirs](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.060.md) - [KRS § 382.070 382.070 No lien unless unpaid consideration stated](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.070.md) - [KRS § 382.075 382.075 Uniform Real Property Electronic Recording Act -- Recording of electronic document -- Electronic signature -- Powers and duties of county clerk](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.075.md) - [KRS § 382.076 382.076 Paper copy of electronic record relating to real property -- Certificate -- Notice -- Exception for plats, maps, and surveys](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.076.md) - [KRS § 382.077 382.077 Immediate recording -- Priority of documents](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.077.md) - [KRS § 382.080 382.080 Recording of conveyance for longer than five years and of marriage agreement](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.080.md) - [KRS § 382.090 382.090 Recording of options or offers to sell](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.090.md) - [KRS § 382.100 382.100 Contracts for sale of real property may be recorded](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.100.md) - [KRS § 382.110 382.110 Recording of deeds and mortgages -- Place of recording -- Use of certified copies of original records -- Contents of deed -- Filing of deed in lieu of foreclosure -- Time for filing deed](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.110.md) - [KRS § 382.115 382.115 Owner of land comprising subdivision -- Recording of plat prior to sale or transfer of any lot or parcel -- Requirements -- Penalties](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.115.md) --- Source: Frix Law Library, https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXXXII_C382_S382.075.
