Overview
Alaska notary publics have the option to protect themselves professionally with an individual errors-and-omissions (E&O) policy — and many choose to do so. This voluntary coverage is the personal protection layer that covers you — the notary — against claims arising from unintentional mistakes made during the course of your notarial duties. Unlike a surety bond, which protects the members of the public you serve, an E&O policy shields your own finances if a client alleges your error caused them harm. Securing this coverage is a smart, practical choice for any Alaska notary who wants to work with confidence.
Who Needs This Bond?
Any Alaska commissioned notary who wants personal financial protection against claims of notarial error should consider this individual policy. Whether you are being commissioned for the first time or renewing a commission you have held before, an E&O policy is especially valuable if you perform acknowledgments, jurats, oaths, or any other notarial acts regularly. Mobile notaries, signing agents, and those performing remote online notarizations often find this coverage particularly worthwhile. It is designed specifically for individual commissioned notaries — not for employers, agencies, or firms.
What is this Bond For?
This optional E&O policy exists to protect you personally from the financial consequences of an unintentional mistake made while performing a notarial act in Alaska. If a member of the public suffers a loss and claims your error — a missed signature, an incomplete acknowledgment, a procedural misstep — caused it, the policy can respond on your behalf. A surety bond protects the public; this policy protects the notary. Together they create a complete coverage picture for an Alaska commissioned notary.
When is it Required?
No U.S. state, including Alaska, requires notaries to carry an E&O policy. The E&O policy is entirely voluntary coverage that you can purchase at any time — before you begin notarizing, after your commission is issued, or at renewal. Many notaries choose to put it in place at the same time they secure their surety bond to ensure they have personal protection from day one, but there is no deadline or mandate requiring you to do so. Purchase this policy whenever it makes sense for your practice.
Where Does it Apply?
This is a statewide individual E&O policy that follows your Alaska notary commission wherever you perform notarial acts within the state. It is not tied to a specific county or municipality — coverage applies across all of Alaska. The policy is issued to you as an individual commissioned notary, not to a business or employer.

Frequently Asked Questions
What information about my Alaska notary commission will I need when I purchase this E&O policy online?
Have your Alaska notary commission number, your commission effective and expiration dates, and your legal name exactly as it appears on your commission ready before you start the application. You will also need a current mailing address and contact information. Having these details at your fingertips means you can move through the My Bond App portal without stopping to search for paperwork.
Can I purchase this E&O policy at any point during my commission term?
Yes — this optional coverage can be purchased at any time. Many notaries choose to buy it when they first receive their commission, but you are equally free to add it mid-term or at renewal. There is no state-mandated window for obtaining an E&O policy, so you can get covered whenever it makes the most sense for your situation.
Where does the E&O policy get filed once it is issued?
An individual notary E&O policy is a personal insurance document — you keep it in your records rather than filing it with a government office the way a surety bond is filed. However, you should be prepared to show proof of your E&O coverage if an employer or client requests it. Keep your policy documents accessible alongside your commission certificate and your surety bond so your full professional file is always in one place.
