Which information is typically included on a notary seal?

• A. The notary's name, commission number, and expiration date.
• B. The signer's full legal name.
• C. The document's title.
• D. The county of residence.

Answer: (A)

The key idea is what identifying details appear on a notary seal to prove the notary’s authority. The seal is there to verify who performed the notarization and that their commission is still valid. Including the notary’s name identifies the person, the commission number uniquely identifies their appointment, and the expiration date shows that the commission is currently active. Information like the signer’s full name, the document’s title, or the county of residence isn’t part of what validates the notary’s authority, so those don’t belong on the seal.
