How It Works
Complete the notary application form on our website
Our Texas notary application wizard will guide you step-by-step to properly complete the notary application online and order notary bonds and supplies.
Optional – E-sign the notary application
Once you complete the notary application process, we will download your signed notary application and file it with the Texas Secretary of State. This eliminates the need to mail, fax, or email us your notary application.
Purchase notary supplies and a four-year, $10,000 notary bond
The state requires each notary to pay a $21.00 state filing fee and to be bonded for $10,000. The cost of the four-year notary bond is only $50. At a minimum, a Texas notary must have a notary stamp and record to perform their notarial duties.
Mail, fax, or email us your Texas notary application
The state requires a copy of your signed notary application to be filed electronically for you to be commissioned as a Texas notary. We will promptly file your notary application with the state and get you approved in ten to fourteen working days.Get Started
