Become a Notary Public in Georgia

Georgia requires an education course for new notaries — there is no exam. Commissions are handled by the Clerk of Superior Court (county of residence); statewide administration via Georgia Superior Court Clerks' Cooperative Authority (GSCCCA) — always confirm current requirements, fees, and forms with them directly.

No exam doesn't mean no preparation
