What is this bond?

A Montana Notary Bond is a financial guarantee that protects the public from financial harm caused by a notary's improper actions or negligence. This specific bond does not include Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance, meaning it only compensates the public and does not protect the notary personally. It ensures funds are available if a notary violates regulations during a notarization.

Why is it required?
