Arizona Notary Practice Exam

Notary bonds are tied to the individual notary’s commission, not to their employer. The bond is a promise by the surety to cover public losses from the notary’s improper acts, and it stays in force for the term of the notary’s commission regardless of employment status. Leaving the company does not terminate or cancel the bond; only changes to the notary’s commission or cancellation by the surety (with proper notice) end the bond. So the statement is false.
