Renewal Outreach: Ohio notary public commissions are valid for 5 years. Renewing your commission must be done BEFORE it expires. Ohio Notary Services will contact you approximately 60 days before your commission expires. Our renewal team reaches out via email and phone call, lets you know your window is open, and walks you through the renewal process. Because Ohio law provides no grace period for expired commissions, this outreach is intended to remind you that the expiration date is approaching. Please keep your contact information up to date with us by calling 330-436-0118 or emailing info@becomeanohionotary.com so you do not miss this important communication. 

Disclaimer: While Ohio Notary Services makes every effort to reach out before your expiration date, renewal outreach is a courtesy service. Notaries are responsible for ensuring their commission is renewed on time.
