Established in 1990, the NNA’s Notary of the Year designation is the highest honor an American Notary Public can earn. The award program recognizes Notaries whose actions and accomplishments go above and beyond their basic commissioned duty.
The honor is based on the candidate’s achievements in notarial performance, community service, efforts to lobby for Notary legislative reform, and their dedication to elevating the trust and integrity of the American Notary Public office. The program is open to all Notaries and NNA membership is not required.
