Wisconsin Notary Starter Kit: DFI Exam, $500 Bond, $20 Filing, 3-Item Stamp and Remote Online Notary Steps
Wisconsin notaries file with the Department of Financial Institutions, not a Secretary of State, after a 90% exam, a $500 bond and an oath. Remote work needs no new commission, only an approved provider.

Browse the storeWho it is for
US residents applying to Wisconsin DFI for a four-year commission, Wisconsin attorneys considering a permanent commission, and Wisconsin notaries onboarding with a remote provider.
Not the right fit if
You aren't applying in Wisconsin, or you still need DFI's free tutorial and exam, which come before this kit's setup steps.
Why it is different
- Quotes Wisconsin Statutes chapter 140 by subsection, alongside DFI's own pages.
- Explains the per-document fee cap and the 3-year expired ID rule.
- Shows how remote onboarding with a provider replaces a separate commission.
What is inside
- DFI exam, $500 bond, oath and filing. 140.02 qualifications, the 90% exam, bond signatures, the oath before a notarial officer and the $20 filing.
- $5 per document, 3-year ID rule and stamp. 140.02(9) fees, 140.07 identification, conflict rules and the three items your stamp may show.
- Approved providers and the notario penalties. How remote onboarding works, identity proofing, the 7-year recording, and the 140.02(1)(i) notice and fines.
- Wisconsin commission checklist. Exam, bond, oath, DFI filing and stamp, in order.
- Wisconsin startup costs. DFI's $20 four-year fee and $50 attorney fee filled in, with blanks for the $500 bond, stamp and remote provider.
- Wisconsin record pages. Optional log pages with ID expiration and credible witness columns.
