About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

Bond protects the public — E&O protects you

Indiana requires a $25,000 notary surety bond for your Secretary of State commission under IC 33-42. That bond is a public-protection guarantee: if a notary’s misconduct harms someone, they can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. The bond does not protect you.

This version bundles in $10,000 of errors-and-omissions (E&O) insurance, which does protect you. E&O covers legal costs and damages from unintentional notarial errors — a missing seal, a wrong date, an overlooked signature — without requiring you to repay the insurer.

Indiana does not require E&O — only the bond. But because a single mistake can be costly and the bond gives you no protection, many notaries add E&O. The bond premium is the same flat $750; the bundle adds the E&O for your own peace of mind.

IC 33-42-12-1 (bond required; E&O optional)Under IC 33-42, an Indiana notary is commissioned by the Secretary of State for an 8-year term and must maintain a $25,000 surety bond, which protects the public. Indiana does not require errors-and-omissions insurance; E&O is optional coverage that protects the notary from liability for unintentional errors. This product satisfies the bond requirement and adds $10,000 of E&O.

Five minutes. The whole thing.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Indiana notary bond with E&O? +
The bond premium is $750 — a flat 3% of the fixed $25,000 bond amount, one-time for your 8-year commission. This version bundles in $10,000 of E&O coverage that protects you from your own unintentional errors.
What’s the difference between the bond and E&O? +
The $25,000 bond protects the public — if it pays a claim, you repay the surety. The $10,000 E&O protects you, covering legal costs and damages from unintentional notarial mistakes without requiring repayment. The bond is required; E&O is optional but recommended.
Does Indiana require E&O? +
No. Indiana only requires the $25,000 surety bond for your commission. E&O is optional coverage many notaries add for their own protection, since the bond gives them none.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount license bonds like this one don’t need one.
How long does the coverage last? +
The bond runs your full 8-year notary commission for the one-time $750 premium. The bundled E&O coverage runs with it — confirm the E&O term details on your policy documents.
