Texas Notary Bond
The State of Texas 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 Texas notary.
The Texas notary bond is a $10,000 bond and is valid throughout your 4-year notary commission in the State of Texas. In addition to the notary bond, it is also required that a Texas notary obtain a state-approved notary seal and pay a $21 state filing fee. The notary bond, state filing fee, and a notarial seal are available in our basic notary package.

Why Purchase Texas Notary Public E&O Insurance?
A small mistake can be very expensive. Notarial losses are becoming more common every day, from small suits to major verdicts involving tens of thousands of dollars. The required Texas notary bond DOES NOT cover you in these cases. Just as you protect your home, car and other personal effects with insurance, you need to protect your notarial acts with Texas Notary Public Errors and Omissions Insurance. The term of the policy is the same as your notary commission. Policies may be purchased at a nominal premium with varying limits. Get the protection you need so you can perform your notarial duties with confidence!
