1Which Nevada state official appoints and commissions notaries public?
A.The Secretary of State
B.The clerk of the county district court
C.The Attorney General
D.The Lieutenant Governor
Explanation: Under NRS Chapter 240, the Nevada Secretary of State (through its Notary Division) is the appointing and commissioning authority for all notaries public in Nevada. The county clerk only files the bond and oath; it does not appoint the notary.
2How long is the term of a Nevada notary public commission?
A.2 years
B.4 years
C.5 years
D.10 years
Explanation: A Nevada notary public commission is issued for a 4-year term under NRS Chapter 240. The required $10,000 surety bond is also written for the same 4-year period.
3What is the minimum age to be appointed a notary public in Nevada?
A.There is no minimum age
B.16 years old
C.18 years old
D.21 years old
Explanation: NRS 240.015 requires that an applicant for a Nevada notary public commission be at least 18 years of age. Applicants must also be Nevada residents (or qualifying residents of an adjoining state) and possess their civil rights.
4Does Nevada require a prospective notary to pass a written examination before being commissioned?
A.Yes, but only attorneys must take the exam
B.Only remote notaries take any exam; traditional notaries do not
C.No, Nevada requires only an application and bond with no exam
D.Yes, applicants must complete state training and pass an exam with at least an 80% score
Explanation: Nevada is one of the few states with a mandatory exam. All new and renewing traditional notaries must complete the Secretary of State's training course and pass an examination with a score of at least 80%. Electronic notaries must additionally pass a separate eNotary exam.
5What is the minimum passing score on the Nevada traditional notary training exam?
A.80%
B.90%
C.70%
D.75%
Explanation: After completing the required training through the Secretary of State's site, a traditional notary applicant must pass the exam with a score of at least 80%. (The separate electronic notary exam requires at least 75%.)
6What surety bond amount must a Nevada notary public obtain and file?
A.$5,000
B.$10,000
C.$15,000
D.$25,000
Explanation: NRS 240.030 requires a $10,000 surety bond made payable to the State of Nevada, filed with the county clerk of the notary's county of residence (or employment, for adjoining-state residents). The bond runs for the 4-year commission term.
7Where must a Nevada notary's surety bond and oath of office be filed?
A.With the notary's surety company only
B.With the Secretary of State directly
C.With the county clerk of the county where the notary resides or is employed
D.With the district court clerk in Carson City
Explanation: The $10,000 bond and the oath of office are filed with the county clerk of the county where the notary resides (or, for adjoining-state residents, where they are employed in Nevada). The clerk then issues a filing notice that the applicant uploads with the SilverFlume application.
8Whom does a Nevada notary's surety bond protect?
A.The notary's employer only
B.The Secretary of State's office
C.The notary, by reimbursing the notary for any losses
D.Members of the public who suffer damage from the notary's misconduct
Explanation: The bond is conditioned to indemnify members of the public who suffer damage as a result of a notary's violation of NRS Chapter 240. It does not protect the notary; for that, notaries may purchase errors-and-omissions (E&O) insurance, which is not required by Nevada law.
9What is the maximum fee a Nevada notary may charge for taking an acknowledgment of the FIRST signature of a signer?
A.$15.00
B.$5.00
C.$7.50
D.$10.00
Explanation: Under NRS 240.100, a Nevada notary may charge up to $15.00 for taking an acknowledgment for the first signature of each signer, and up to $7.50 for each additional signature of that signer. These are maximums; a notary may charge less or nothing.
