What it is and who needs it.
What the bond and the E&O each do
Alaska requires a notary to file a $2,500 surety bond under AS 44.50.034 before receiving a commission. The bond protects the public — if a notary's misconduct causes someone a financial loss, that person can recover against the $2,500 bond.
The bond does not protect the notary. If a claim is paid on the bond, the surety can seek repayment from you. That's where errors-and-omissions coverage comes in: the bundled $5,000 E&O protects you personally against honest mistakes — a missing seal, a wrong date — up to its limit.
E&O is optional under Alaska law; the $2,500 bond is the part that's required. Many notaries add the coverage anyway because the bond alone leaves them exposed. If you only want the required bond, we write that version too.
