Changes coming to notarization laws in 2024

And i just heard that some states are updating their notarization laws starting next year — this could really affect how we all operate, especially with remote notarizations becoming more common. Is anyone else preparing for these changes or have insights on what exactly is changing?

It sounds like we might need to brush up on our notary wiki skills for 2024! One thing I’ve noticed is that with these changes, clear communication will be key — maybe a local info session could help everyone get on the same page? Has anyone started planning these yet?

With all these changes coming, it might be wise to set up a training session with our team to go over the new regulations. Think of it like prepping for a big test — no one wants to be caught off guard! Has anyone checked in with their state’s notary association for more details?
