How do I renew my Notary Public Commission?

The process to renew your Notary Public commission is the same as when you first apply. Please complete a Notary Application-Oath and Bond form. Send the completed form with the $25 fee to:

Office of the Secretary of State
500 East Capitol, Ste 204
Pierre, SD 57501

If you wish to renew your Notary Public commission and would like to keep the same commission date and expiration date (month and day), you may do so by completing and mailing to the Office of the Secretary of State the Application-Oath and Bond form in advance of the expiration of the commission. 

If you would like a different expiration date than your previous commission, please indicate the date on which you wish to have your next six-year term begin.

We must receive the Application prior to the date you have selected. 

We cannot back date an application, and the commission date and the expiration date must be accurate.
