How your Indiana Notary bond works
A surety bond protects the public by providing a financial safeguard against negligence or misconduct by a Notary.
- If a signer suffers financial harm because of your negligence or misconduct, they can file a claim against your bond.
- If you’re found at fault, the bond will pay the financial damage up to the bond coverage amount.
- As a form of liability, you’re required to pay back the bond provider if a claim is paid out from your bond.
We also recommend you protect yourself for the length of your 8-year Indiana Notary commission term with Errors & Omissions insurance.
