What is an Oklahoma notary bond?
An Oklahoma notary bond is a three-party agreement in which a bonding (surety) company financially guarantees to the Oklahoma Secretary of State that the Oklahoma notary will perform their duties lawfully, ethically, and in accordance with Oklahoma notary law. If a claim is made and approved, the surety company will pay the claim and seek reimbursement from the notary.
Why do I need an Oklahoma notary bond?
To protect the public from financial loss caused by a notary’s negligence or misconduct, Oklahoma law requires all first-time notary applicants and notaries renewing their commissions to maintain a four-year, $10,000 Oklahoma notary bond for the duration of the notary’s commission term.
An Oklahoma notary bond does not provide any financial protection to the Oklahoma notary. It solely protects the public. For that reason, many Oklahoma notaries choose to purchase a notary errors and omissions (E&O) insurance policy.
