Why Belong to a Professional Notary Association?

by the American Association of Notaries

Notaries assume liability for every notarial act upon being commissioned as a notary public. It is critical to obtain the best information available to ensure compliance with your state's laws. If you observe laws properly, you can protect yourself and minimize opportunity for liability.


A good association will provide information, notary training, and notary support.

A phone call or email is usually all it takes to get the answers you need, when you need them. No hour-long queue, no endless recording of options… just a live person with straight answers!

A good association will offer discounts on notary supplies, and stand behind their notary products.

A good association will help you keep track of your commission expiration date and renewal information so you don't find yourself with an expired notary commission.

  1. A good association provides online resources you need, right at your fingertips.

  3. Keep up with technological developments related to this industry
  4. Receive updated information on legislation affecting notaries
