Montana commission
Your Montana commission and fees
Commissions are issued by the Montana Secretary of State. A Montana commission lasts four years. The bond's effective date must fall within 30 days before or after your application arrives. You can renew from 30 days before expiration to the end of a 30-day grace period after it.
What Montana lets a notary charge per act: Up to $10 per notarial act. Travel may be charged only if explained as not set by law and agreed in advance, and not above the IRS standard mileage rate (Handbook).
