No Bond Required
Oregon Notary Bond Requirements
Oregon does not require a surety bond to become a notary public. Notary commissions in Oregon are administered directly by the Secretary of State (or county clerk) without a bonding requirement.
What Oregon Notaries Should Consider Instead
- Errors & Omissions (E&O) insurance — Protects you personally if you make a notarial mistake. A bond protects the public; E&O protects the notary.
- Notary supplies — Official seal/stamp, journal, and any state-mandated training materials.
- Moving to a bond state? If you relocate to a state that requires a notary bond, we can issue it the same day.
