What amount is required for the notary bond?

$5,000
$10,000
$15,000
$20,000

The correct answer is: $10,000

The correct answer is $10,000. In Pennsylvania, a notary public is required to obtain a bond in this amount as part of the application process to ensure that they perform their notarial duties honestly and faithfully. The bond serves as a form of insurance that protects the public from any potential misconduct or negligence on the part of the notary. It is designed to provide financial compensation to individuals who may suffer damages due to improper actions taken by the notary in the course of performing their official duties. While the bond amount may vary in different states or professions, Pennsylvania has set this particular figure as a standard requirement for notaries to uphold the integrity of the profession and maintain public trust.
