There are no refunds once a bond has been filed.
The Tennessee notary public bond protects the public from mistakes made by the notary. If you make an error that results in harm to a third-party in connection with your duties as a notary, you may be liable up to the bond limit of $10,000. For this reason, many notaries purchase additional Notary Errors and Omissions (E&O) Insurance coverage.

TRAVELERS CASUALTY AND SURETY COMPANY OF AMERICA (the “Company”) will pay on behalf of
______________________________________________ of ________________________________________________________
(the “Insured”), all sums which the Insured shall become obligated to pay by reason of liability for breach of duty while acting as a duly
commissioned and sworn Notary Public, claim for which is made against the Insured by reason of any negligent act, error or omission, committed or
alleged to have been committed by the Insured, arising out of the performance of notarial service for others in the Insured’s capacity as a duly
commissioned and sworn Notary Public.
POLICY PERIOD: This policy applies only to negligent acts, errors or omissions which occur during the Policy Period and then only if
claim, suit or other action arising therefrom is commenced within the applicable Statute of Limitations pertaining to the Insured. The Policy Period
commences on the Effective Date hereof and terminates upon the expiration of the Insured’s commission as a Notary Public unless cancelled earlier
as provided in this policy. This policy is not valid for more than one commission term.
LIMIT OF LIABILITY: The liability of the Company shall not exceed in the aggregate for all claims under this insurance the amount of:
_________________________________________________________________________________________ DOLLARS (________________).
In addition to the limit of liability and in accordance with the other provisions of this policy, the Company will pay costs and expenses paid and
incurred in investigating, contesting or settling liability in an amount not to exceed, in the aggregate, one-half of the limit of this policy.
INSURED’S DUTIES IN THE EVENT OF OCCURRENCE, CLAIM OR SUIT:
(a) Upon knowledge of any occurrence which may reasonably be expected to result in a claim or suit, written notice containing
particulars sufficient to identify the Insured and also reasonably obtainable information with respect to the time, place and circumstances thereof, and
the names and addresses of the potential claimant and of available witnesses, shall be given by or for the Insured to the Company or any of its
authorized agents as soon as practicable, but in no event longer than forty-five (45) days after discovery.
(b) If claim is made or suit is brought against the Insured, the Insured shall immediately forward to the Company every demand,
notice, summons or other process received by him or his representative.
(c) The Insured shall cooperate with the Company and, upon the Company’s request, assist in making settlements, in the conduct of
suits and the Insured shall attend hearings and trials and assist in securing and giving evidence and obtaining the attendance of witnesses. The
Insured shall not, except at his own cost, voluntarily make any payment, assume any obligation or incur any expense except with the prior written
consent of the Company.
EXCLUSIONS: Coverage under this policy does not apply to any dishonest, fraudulent, criminal or malicious act or omission of the
Insured.
OTHER INSURANCE: If the Insured has other insurance against a loss covered by this policy, the Company shall not be liable under this
policy for a greater proportion of such loss, cost and expenses than the limit of liability stated in this policy bears to the total limit of liability of all
valid and collectible insurance against such loss.
CANCELLATION: The insured may cancel this policy at any time by mailing or delivering to us advance written notice of cancellation.
The company may cancel this policy by mailing or delivering to the insured written notice of cancellation at least 10 days before the effective date of
cancellation if we cancel for nonpayment of premium or 30 days before the effective date of cancellation if we cancel for any other reason. If we
cancel, the premium refund will be pro rata and if the insured cancels, the refund may be less than pro rata. The cancellation will be effective even if
we have not made or offered a refund.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Policy to be signed by its authorized Company officers at Hartford, CT.
