§49-11. Name and address changes - Fees, bond and seal.
A. If a notary’s resident address changes, the notary must inform the Secretary of State in writing within thirty (30) days of such change. The notary is not required to file a new bond or obtain another seal if the notary moves from one county to another.
B. If a name change occurs in the middle of a term, the notary has two options:
1. The notary may continue to use the former name as issued on the existing commission until it expires; or
2. The notary may use the notary’s new name by completing and filing an application with the Secretary of State with a fee of Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00). A new commission expiration date will be established. It will be necessary for the notary to purchase a new seal and obtain a new bond for filing with the court clerk.
