What do I need to bring to complete my Notary Commission?

For notary applicants who have been approved and bonded by the Secretary of State's office, you will need to appear in person at the County Clerk's office to complete qualifying for your commission. First, please call our office at 271-1412 to verify your Commission Certificate has been received by our office. You will need to bring the following items:


1) $10,000 surety bond to insure your four-year term as a notary public

2) $6.00- cash or check made out to the Buchanan County Clerk's office (we currently do not have the ability to take payment by debit/credit card)

If you have not qualified with the Secretary of State's Office, then please see the link below to learn how to become a notary. How to Become a Notary
