So while you were studying the Arizona Notary Public manual, you ran across the mentioning of a journal and a seal. Hmm, how do I get these items?
The answer to this question is when you get your notary certificate from the Arizona Secretary of State, you can purchase the seal. As for the journal, you can get them practically anywhere. Just make sure it has the items that Arizona requires. You can find these requirements in the Notary manual.
As for the journal, I recommend this one from Amazon.
I also recommend this privacy guard, which is from Amazon. With the current emphasis on privacy concerns, this guard blocks the information in the journal from being seen by others while performing a notarization.
Please note that you must have your Arizona Notary certificate to input information from the certification into the order form.
Now on to the seal. Go to https://www.notarypublicstamps.com/ where you secured your bond insurance. Click on the notary stamps link, and you will see a myriad of stamps to choose .
Click on the tab “Select Another State” and choose Arizona. Now you do not need anything fancy to stamp documents. I purchased this one for $19.95, and this includes a free membership to the American Association of Notaries.
It will take approximately two weeks to receive your seal.
Next, we will be talking about joining the National Notary Association which is the de-facto association for everything notary.
