Florida Notary Public Updates

One of the requirements to be commissioned as a notary public, in the state of Florida, is to complete a notary education course.

Unless necessary and pertinent to their employment, most people are not aware of the spectrum of duties that a notary public in Florida is authorized to perform. Additionally, the risks and responsibilities that go along with every notarization, are often overlooked.

As a result, the state of Florida requires all new notaries public to complete an approved education course that provides essential notary information. This information is meant to help notaries avoid negligent mistakes that can lead to serious legal repercussions. In addition, the requirement of an education course is used to promote ethical notarial practices among notaries in the state of Florida.

Troy Fain’s Florida Notary Education Course also offers flexibility. You can work on the course at your own pace, in your own time. You can stop the course and come back to it as needed. In addition, you have access to the information for your entire four year term and can reference it whenever necessary.

Upon completion of the course, you will be presented with a certificate. This certificate needs to be printed and signed. The signed certificate, then, must be sent to our office in one of the following ways:

Mail:                             P.O. Box 5077, Tallahassee, FL 32314 

Scan and Email:             This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Fax:                              866-409-0244

Once we receive your bond, completed application and signed certificate, we are able to send all necessary documents to the Secretary of State’s office for review.
