[Browse the store](/toolkits) Who it is for Floridians applying for a commission through a bonding agency, and Florida notaries registering as online notaries. Not the right fit if You aren't applying in Florida, or you haven't done the 3-hour course: the Department of State's free online course covers it, and this kit doesn't replace it. Why it is different - Fees and rules come from the Governor's Notary Section and the Florida Department of State, named under each table. - Covers online notary registration: $25,000 bond, at least $25,000 of E&O insurance and 10-year records. - Notes the s. 117.01 fee waiver for veterans with wartime service and a disability rating of 50% or more. What is inside - **3-hour course and $39 application.** Who qualifies in Florida, the required course and how the application goes through a bonding agency. - **$7,500 bond, $10 fees, ID and seal.** Florida's bond, the $10 per-act cap, the accepted ID list and seal rules, with sources. - **Online notary registration and advertising.** The $25,000 bond, E&O insurance and 10-year record rules for online notaries, plus Florida's advertising notice. - **Florida commission checklist.** From the free 3-hour course to choosing a bonding agency, the commission and your first appointment, notarizing only while you're in Florida. - **Florida startup budget.** Only the $39 is fixed by law; compare bonding agency packages for the bond, seal and journal on the blank lines. - **Florida journal pages.** Printable record pages built around what Florida asks notaries to log.
