If you are commissioned as a traditional or electronic notary, how many days before your term expires can you submit your renewal application?

The correct duration for submitting a renewal application for your notary commission is sixty days before your term expires. This timeframe is specified to ensure that there is sufficient processing time for the application and to avoid any lapse in your notary commission. Preparing the renewal application well in advance allows you to address any potential issues that may arise, ensuring you maintain your ability to perform notarial acts without interruption.

This proactive approach is beneficial not only for you as the notary, but also for your clients, who rely on your services to be continuous and reliable.
