What is a Notary Bond?

A notary bond is a form of surety bond that notaries must have to operate in Missouri. Although a notary bond is often mistaken for insurance, it's actually very different and unlike insurance a notary bond does not provide the purchaser with protection. Instead a surety bond is a contract between three parties:

• The principal – which is the notary
• The obligee – the government agency that requires the bond
• The surety – provider of the bond

A notary bond protects the obligee (the state and general public) from financial loss as they can make a claim against the bond if the notary fails to follow state rules and regulations when acting as a notary. If the surety has to pay out on a claim made against the bond the notary will be required to reimburse the surety for those expenses.

The cost of Missouri Notary Bonds

Sureties calculate surety bond premiums based on several factors including the type of bond and the bond amount. To determine the cost, the surety will look at how risky it is to issue the requested bond. Fortunately, notary bonds are considered low risk, which means they are easily affordable. Notary bond amounts are also usually very small, which also adds to their affordability as smaller bonds cost less. Each state has its own set of regulations on the exact amount a notary bond needs to cover. A Missouri notary bond is required in the amount of $10,000. Each bond is issued on a four-year term and needs to be renewed when each term ends.
