To avoid a gap in your notary commissions, when should you submit your renewal application?

To ensure that there is no gap in your notary commission, it is advisable to submit your renewal application at least thirty days before your current commission expires. This timeframe allows for processing delays and ensures that your renewed commission is received and active before your old commission lapses. By planning ahead and submitting the application well in advance, you maintain continuous authority to perform notarial acts without interruption.
