OK notary bonds.
Flat 3%, $275 minimum.
Every Oklahoma notary files a bond with the Secretary of State under 49 O.S. §2. As of January 1, 2026, SB 1028 raised the bond to $10,000 for new and renewing commissions — it was $1,000 before. This is the bond alone, without E&O. We issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check; at $10,000 it lands at our $275 minimum.

The whole pricing page.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. A $10,000 bond × 3% is $300 — but our floor is $275, and a notary bond runs the full four-year commission.
What it is and who needs it.
What the notary bond actually does
An Oklahoma notary public files a surety bond with the Secretary of State under 49 O.S. §2, conditioned on the faithful performance of the duties of the office. It is a public-protection bond: if a notary’s error or misconduct harms someone relying on a notarization, that person can recover against the bond.
The amount changed on January 1, 2026. Senate Bill 1028 raised the bond from $1,000 to $10,000 for commissions applied for or renewed on or after that date (it also added a national criminal background check and raised filing fees). Notaries whose commissions began before 2026 are not required to increase the bond mid-term — the $10,000 applies to new and renewing commissions.
This is the bond only — it does not include errors-and-omissions (E&O) coverage. The bond protects the public, not you; if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. E&O is separate, optional coverage that protects the notary. A notary bond runs the four-year commission term.
