Under 49 O.S. §2, an Oklahoma notary public must file a surety bond with the Secretary of State, conditioned on faithful performance, for the four-year commission term. SB 1028 raised the bond from $1,000 to $10,000 for commissions applied for or renewed on or after January 1, 2026, and added a criminal background check. Existing commissions are not required to increase mid-term — confirm which amount applies to you.
