Can a notary public terminate their electronic commission while maintaining their traditional commission?

A notary public can indeed terminate their electronic commission while retaining their traditional commission by providing the necessary notification to the appropriate authorities. This process allows notaries the flexibility to manage their commissions according to their changing needs or preferences, particularly as electronic notarization may not be required or desired in all cases.

Maintaining a traditional commission while terminating an electronic one ensures that the notary can continue to serve in their role without the added responsibilities or requirements associated with electronic notarization. This is beneficial for notaries who may find that traditional methods suit their practice better.

The other choices do not accurately reflect the procedures available to notaries regarding their commissions. It is important to be aware of the regulations governing notary practices, as these procedures can vary by state.
