The process for a New Arizona Notary & a Renewing Arizona Notary is exactly the same. Renewing Notaries may
not need to order a new Notary Journal if there are spaces left in the Journal currently being used.
You must meet the following requirements:
- Must be at least 18 years of age
- Must be a citizen or a legal permanent resident of the U.S.
- Must NOT have a conviction for a felony UNLESS your civil rights have been restored, or a conviction of a lesser offense involving moral turpitude or of a nature that is incompatible with the duties of a notary public.
- Must be an Arizona Resident for income tax purposes
- If you have had a professional license revoked or suspended for misconduct or dishonesty or any cause that substantially relates to the duties or responsibilities of a notary public, or if you have had your notary commission revoked or suspended, the Secretary of State may refuse to grant you a commission.
- File online by choosing one of the Packages or Products from the Packages & Supplies page or;
- File by mail by completing the Order Form and Notary Application (Enter and sign your name exactly as you would like it to appear on your commission certificate).
Mail completed order form, notary application along with payment to the following address:
15610 N 35th Ave, Ste 5
Phoenix, AZ 85053
- Once we receive your notary application and order form, we will send you the surety bond to be signed and notarized and mailed back to our office.
- Once we receive the Arizona Notary Bond from you, we will file the Bond and Notary Application with the Secretary of States Office.
- We will Track your Notary Commission throughout the entire process.
- Approximately 4-5 weeks after filing with us, you will receive your notary commission certificate in the mail. Once you receive the certificate, fax it to our office and your Notary Seal & Journal will be mailed to you. This will complete the processing of your notary commission.
