What is the notary commission term for an Illinois non-resident?

In Illinois, non-resident notaries are appointed for a commission term of 1 year. This shorter term reflects the fact that they do not reside in the state, which may influence the level of involvement and oversight by the state in their notarial practices. Non-resident notaries must also meet specific requirements and provide supporting documents to establish their authority to act as a notary in Illinois. This 1-year commission necessitates that non-residents promptly renew their notarial commission to maintain their ability to perform notarial acts within the state.
