I am a Notary Public and I have moved or changed my name, what should I do?
All address and name changes can be done online with the Department of State. We do not require any notice to be recorded in our office. If you moved into Delaware County, please come to our office to fill out the signature form and we will direct you from here to the Office of Judicial Support to register your signature. The cost will be $3.50 – credit card, attorney’s check, money order or cash.
If you changed your name and you are going to order a new stamp, please come to our office to fill out a signature form and we will direct you to the Office of Judicial Support to register your signature for $3.50 by credit card, attorney’s check, money order or cash. If you changed your name, and you are going to keep your old stamp until it’s time to renew, then you do not need to do anything until the renewal happens in your new name.
