Texas law requires all Texas Notaries to purchase and maintain a $10,000 Notary surety bond for the duration of their 4-year commission. The Notary bond protects the Texas public against any financial loss due to improper conduct by an Texas Notary. The bond is NOT insurance protection for Texas Notaries but a protection for the consumer.
