PLEASE NOTE: The permissions granted under the Governor’s Executive Order apply only if the notarization is for a self-proved will, a durable power of attorney, a medical power of attorney, a directive to physician, or an oath of an executor, administrator or guardian. Notaries asked to officiate as provided in the Executive Order must carefully assess whether the document to be notarized is any of those listed above.

Notary Public Errors and Omissions Insurance (E&O) and Signing Agent Errors & Omissions Insurance are similar but distinct types of insurance coverage. Many notaries wonder if they're necessary and, if so, which type should they have.
