Vermont Notary Starter Kit: OPR Licensing, $30 Commission, Open-Book Jurisprudence Exam, Optional Stamp and Remote Endorsement
Vermont treats notaries as a licensed profession. The Office of Professional Regulation issues two-year commissions ending January 31 of odd years and asks for continuing education at renewal. This kit follows OPR's 2025 rules.

Who it is for
Vermont residents and people who work or practice in Vermont applying through OPR, renewing notaries planning their continuing education hour, and notaries seeking the special endorsement for electronic or remote acts.
Not the right fit if
You aren't applying in Vermont: get your own state's kit. It doesn't replace the required jurisprudence exam.
Why it is different
- Built from OPR's Administrative Rules effective February 26, 2025.
- Explains the continuing education hour and who is exempt.
- Shows the details you must type if you choose not to use a stamp.
What is inside
- OPR application, oath and jurisprudence exam. 5341 qualifications, the notarized oath upload, the 30-question open-book exam, exemptions and the two-year cycle.
- OPR fees, ID and stamp-or-typed details. What OPR collects versus what you charge, the 3-year ID rule, optional stamps and the details you type without one.
- Special endorsement and staying in Vermont. Parts 6 to 8 of the rules, the $30 endorsement, recording retention and section 5345 limits.
- Application-to-renewal checklist. Oath, online application, exam upload, CE hour and the January 31 deadline.
- Vermont licensing costs. The $30 commission and $30 endorsement filled in, with blanks for CE, stamp and platform.
- Notarial record pages. Optional pages with a Vermont town column.
