Florida Notary Bond

The State of Florida requires notaries to purchase a notary bond. A notary bond is a surety bond that protects the public against any wrongdoing on the part of a notary. The notary bond will compensate an individual harmed as a result of errors or mistakes performed by a Florida notary.

The Florida notary bond is a $7,500 bond and is valid throughout your 4-year notary commission in the State of Florida. In addition to the notary bond, it is also required that a Florida notary obtain a state-approved notary seal and pay a $39 state filing fee. The notary bond, state filing fee, and a notarial seal are available in our basic notary package. If you are a new notary, the State of Florida requires you to take a notary education course. Our new notary package includes state-approved online notary training.

Notary Public Underwriters is approved by the State of Florida as a notary bonding agency and we offer you everything you will need to become a Florida notary or renew your Florida notary commission. We have an online notary application process that allows you to fill out the state required application, purchase the required notary supplies, and other notary accessories that will assist you in sufficiently performing your notarial duties. Our process allows you to customize your notary package including choosing what type of notary stamp you want!

Our online application requires you to purchase with a credit card. If you want to pay by check or money order, please visit our Florida Notary Forms to download, complete and mail in with payment.

IMPORTANT REMINDER

The notary bond DOES NOT protect the notary!

Should an error or mistake occur while performing a notarial act, the Florida notary is liable to reimburse the surety company for the loss. A notary will need to purchase a Florida Notary Public Errors and Omissions Insurance policy to ensure his or her protection.

Don't confuse the required Notary Bond with and Errors & Omissions Insurance Policy.
