What is an Indiana notary bond?
An Indiana notary bond is a three-party agreement in which a bonding (surety) company financially guarantees to the Indiana Secretary of State that the Indiana notary will perform their duties lawfully, ethically, and in accordance with Indiana 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 Indiana notary bond?
To protect the public from financial loss caused by a notary’s negligence or misconduct, Indiana law requires all first-time notary applicants and notaries renewing their commissions to maintain an eight-year, $25,000 Indiana notary bond for the duration of the notary’s commission term.
An Indiana notary bond does not provide any financial protection to the Indiana notary. It solely protects the public. For that reason, many Indiana notaries choose to purchase a notary errors and omissions (E&O) insurance policy.
