What is a Montana notary bond?
A Montana notary bond is a three-party agreement in which a bonding (surety) company financially guarantees to the Montana Secretary of State that the Montana notary will perform their duties lawfully, ethically, and in accordance with Montana notary law. If a claim is made and approved, the surety company will pay the claim and seek reimbursement from the notary.
