National Notary Bond Program

In most states, notaries are considered a public officer and their duties are to be performed in accordance with state law and include witnessing signatures, verifying identities of signers, remaining impartial, and certifying or attesting a copy.

Notaries are required by law to take an oath and to purchase and maintain a notary surety bond for their entire term of office. The professionals at Alliant Insurance Services help you obtain the necessary notary surety bond required to comply with the requirements of a notary public.
