North Dakota Notary Starter Kit: FirstStop Application, $7,500 Bond, Stamp Authorization, $5 Fee Cap and Remote Ink Rules

North Dakota will not let a vendor make your stamp until the Secretary of State authorizes it, and you cannot act before the commencement date on your certificate. This kit follows that order, then covers the $5 cap and remote ink acknowledgments.

Who it is for

North Dakota residents, border-county neighbors who qualify through reciprocity, people who work or practice in North Dakota, and North Dakota notaries filing the FirstStop amendment for remote work.

Not the right fit if

You aren't applying in North Dakota, or you live in a neighboring state's border county that doesn't extend reciprocity to North Dakota residents.

Why it is different

Explains the stamp authorization certificate, a step few states use.
Separates remote ink acknowledgments from fully online acts.
Built only from Secretary of State pages, named under each table.

What is inside

FirstStop, bond and stamp authorization. Who qualifies, the $7,500 bond on form SFN 19355, the $36 filing, the authorization certificate and the stamp impression you send back.
$5 cap, 3-year ID rule and stamp size. Travel and technology charges, accepted IDs, the optional in-person journal, certificate contents and stamp dimensions.
RIN, RON and in-person electronic acts. The FirstStop amendment, acknowledgment-only remote ink signings, the 3-day return and 10-year recordings.
Authorization-to-commencement checklist. Bond, oath, filing, vendor certificate, impression form and first act, in order.
North Dakota filing costs. The $36 FirstStop filing and $10 name change filled in, with blanks for the $7,500 SFN 19355 bond premium, stamp and platform.
Journal pages with a RIN/RON column. Columns follow the Secretary of State's suggested entries.

Is this legal or tax advice?

Can I buy my North Dakota notary stamp before approval?

No. A vendor can't make it until you have the Secretary of State's Certificate of Authorization to Purchase a Notary Stamping Device. Then you return an impression for verification.
