Most states require a notary public to purchase a surety bond as part of the process of becoming licensed or renewing a license. These bonds protect the public from financial loss due to the mistakes, misconduct, or fraudulent acts of a notary public.
A notary provides two essential services to the public:
Being granted a license as a notary confers a position of trust, and they are required to carry out their duties in accordance with very specific rules and regulations. In the majority of states, you’ll need to obtain a notary public bond as part of the process for becoming licensed or renewing your license.
This type of surety bond obligates the notary public to comply with all relevant rules and regulations governing their duties. Because of the potential for financial loss if a signature on a legally binding document later proves to be invalid, most states require these bonds as a guarantee that no innocent party loses out due to the actions of a notary public.
In the event of a notary’s mistake or misconduct, a file can be claimed against the notary public bond. The surety company will investigate, and if it finds the claim to be valid, it will pay the claim. Then, it will recover that amount from the notary.
Unlike the vast majority of surety bonds, notary public bonds are typically issued without a credit check or financial underwriting. The cost to the applicant is generally no more than $100 for a $10,000 bond.
