How To Be A Mobile Notary Public Signing Agent In New York

 

Looking To Get Started Or Make More Money As A NY Notary Public?

In NY, the time to obtain your notary certificate could be as little as 1-2 weeks. A few states do require training and classes in advance of completing an exam, such as California. How exams are administered and what training or courses are required vary by state.

The Notary process varies by state because notaries are commissioned and regulated at the individual state level. All notaries should check with their Secretary of State to fully understand what is required to obtain their notary commission. For those states that require training, they must be state-approved service providers. While few states require in-person training, it is encouraged to obtain educational support on your own. You can do this through a service provider or organization that teaches practical information to learn how to perform official duties, record notarial acts, or obtain a mentor.

Once you have passed your exam, the next step in most states is to obtain a surety bond. This protects consumers if you make an error. You should consider purchasing what is known as E&O insurance, as this will protect you against claims relating to any mistakes you may have made.
