Become a Notary Public in Florida
Florida requires an education course for new notaries — there is no exam. Commissions are handled by the Governor of Florida / Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations (Notary Commissions and Certifications Section) — always confirm current requirements, fees, and forms with them directly.
No exam doesn't mean no preparation
