Why You Should Renew Your Notary
Demand for notaries has hit an all-time high. Notaries are constantly needed by leading industries, such as banking, finance, healthcare, real estate, government, insurance and more. The overwhelming majority of the 4.4 million Notaries in America became Notaries as part of their job duties or as a value-added skill on their resume, which gives them a competitive edge. Others choose to become a Notary so they can have their own mobile Notary or Notary Signing Agent business.
As an independent contractor, you can earn a full or part-time income by handling mortgage signings, notarizing trust documents and performing many other vital tasks.

Our 6-hour Notary Course is for first-time notaries and returning notaries whose commission has expired. Our 3-Hour Renewal Notary Course is for returning notaries who have not had a lapse in their commission.
Every person appointed as a notary public shall:
- Be 18 years of age or older
- Be a legal California resident
- Clear a background check (Government Code section 8201.)
- Complete a course of study approved by the Secretary of State
- Satisfactorily complete and pass a written examination prescribed by the Secretary of State

To be eligible for an approved 3-Hour renewal course, notaries public must have previously completed an approved 6-Hour notary public education course and have a current, active commission as well as have taken the notary public exam and submitted the application at the exam site prior to the expiration date of their current commission.

Upon satisfactory completion of this approved notary public course, you will receive a Proof of Completion certificate.

However, a person seeking reappointment must apply and take the notary public examination before expiration of their Proof of Completion certificate and before expiration of their notary public commission.
Renewing Your California Notary Commission Doesn’t Have To Be A Hassle
Choose from two affordable options:
Choose this course if you are renewing your commission and it hasn’t expired yet. Are you a first time California notary or has your commission expired? If so, we also offer a 6-Hour course.
* Important Note: If you are renewing and your commission is nearing expiration, it’s best to take the six hour training course. We’ve had many students take the three hour course with the intention of completing the process in time only to find that the state’s exam wasn’t offered soon enough. It’s only offered once per month in many counties and once every six months in some counties.
If you sign up for the three hour class and end up needing to take the six hour class because you ran out of time, we’ll move you to the six hour course free of additional charges, provided you’re in your paid access time. However, you’ll lose all of your progress and have to start from the beginning because of the additional content and the state’s requirement for time tracking.
The state also recommends taking the notary public exam at least six months prior to the expiration date of a current notary public commission so that there isn’t a break in between notary public terms. If all application requirements are met the state will issue the new commission 30 days prior to the expiration date of the current commission.
Because of these reasons we highly recommend taking the 6-hour course if your commission expires in fewer than six months.
