How many seals may a notary public have?

• A. Only one
• B. Two
• C. As many as desired
• D. None

Answer: (A)

Notaries rely on a single official seal to validate every notarized document. That seal serves as the consistent mark of authority, showing the act was performed by a commissioned notary and identifying the jurisdiction and expiration details. Arizona law requires only one notarial seal, so having more than one would create confusion and open doors to misuse. Therefore, the correct answer is that only one seal may be used. Options suggesting two, any number, or none would conflict with standard practice and the need for a dependable, single identifying mark.
