E & O Insurance: Does a E&O blanket policy (for 2 notaries in our office) stating the company as the insured, cover the 2 notaries if they notarize something outside the office? Or does the E & O blanket policy need to list the notaries names as the insured? Thank you. Terea

Hello. Just to confirm, are you writing us from California? Our group E&O policy form for California would cover the employer and 2 Notaries for errors and omissions committed or alleged to have been committed while performing notarial services for the employer, provided the Notaries are employees, not independent contractors.

Was was just served. I'm being sued. I did the notary in 2013. I am no longer a notary or work for the bank where I did the notary. How do I find out if I'm covered? What steps should I take? I only have 30 days to respond.

I didn't know that E&O insurances and notary bonds were different by the notary covering you and not the notary. I've been thinking about getting my brother a notary bond since he always gets in trouble and I think it'd be better to pay for one of those in case he goes to jail again and needs a lawyer. Thank you for explaining how they work, I'll make sure I remember.

I've heard that, as with other professional liability insurances, the insurer WILL NOT cover the professional IF THEY HAVE BROKEN THE LAW in the performance of the service. Shouldn't the NNA let us know that if it is a possibility?

In California, If you have a $25,000 E&O insurance as a notary and then become a loan signing agent, does the same E&O apply or do you need a separate policy ? Thanks
National Notary Association

It is only one E&O policy but the E&O policy only covers the notary acts done in connection with the loan signing… you should investigate about general insurance for your business with a licensed insurance agent.

I completed my CA notary & loan signing courses, was issued a commission number, bought my E&O 100K & 15K bond and seal through the school I went to. My Certificates of Oath for the County Clerks office were rejected because the notary did not complete his part correctly. I started the process over and just received new commission number. I know I need new seal, but do I need to repurchase E&O & bond with new commission number??? I do not see my old commission number on my bond or E&O certificates. Thank you, Tina

And there is a huge difference between a notary public E&O policy and a NOTARY SIGNING AGENT E&O POLICY. Which would be great to include in an article about notary insurance.If you are just doing general notary work and no loan signings, you can disregard. But if you plan to do loan signings, read your current E&O policies, folks. If it says notary public at the top, it's a notary public policy. If it says SIGNING AGENT, it's a notary signing agent policy. Contact your insurance provider. Make sure you are covered before you accept any loan assignment.

I am a new notary with a $7500 surety bond and $15k e&o insurance. I just passed my enotary exam in Arkansas. I am supposed to have a $25k e&o insurance. Can I have 2 of them or do I need to update my current one?

You cannot have two E&O insurance policies at one time, so you would have to increase the amount of coverage on your current policy.

Hello, I work for a company that purchases the Bond and E&O insurance package through Valley Sierra for their staff who become notaries that perform them only at work. If we have an employee that leaves our company but wishes to maintain their Notary Commission, would they need to then purchase their own Bond and/or E&O? Thank you!

When I become a notary signing agent which requires 25k insurance, do I need e and o insurance for the initial notary also?
National Notary Association

Hi Kim. Errors and Omissions Insurance safeguards you against mistakes that can happen with a standard Notary, to notarial acts found within the loan signing process. It is not required by law but the NNA highly recommends it.
