Cost Breakdown
1. Commission and certification
You must be a commissioned Notary Public in your state to work as a Notary Signing Agent. You may also need certification and to undergo a background check, which is not required by law, but many companies may require it for the NSAs they use.
2. E&O insurance
Notary E&O insurance is required by many companies that give you loan signing assignments. The minimum policy amount recommended by the Signing Professionals Workgroup is $25,000.
3. Equipment and supplies
There are several items essential to your work as an NSA such as a smartphone, laptop, and dual-tray printer. Many new NSAs opt for the less expensive alternative and then scale up as their revenue increases.
4. Marketing materials
Marketing yourself is absolutely vital for launching a successful business of any sort. For NSAs, start-up marketing costs could include business cards, a website, and Notary directories.
Overall, the estimated startup costs for a Signing Agent business can range from around $1,200 to more than $3,800. You’ll need to plan for additional costs of operating and growing your business, such as vehicle expenses including auto insurance, gas, tires and additional maintenance.

What’s the cost for Arizona?
Should the dual printer not have a scanner included? Something like a 3 in 1? I’m a little confused on the scanner that’s needed. Thank you.
