The bill amends 49 O.S. 2021, Section 1.1, which pertains to the application process for obtaining a notary commission in Oklahoma. A significant change is the removal of the requirement for applicants to provide their home address, which is deleted from the current law. The bill also reorganizes the application requirements, renumbering the remaining items and adding new statements that applicants must affirm, such as their age, citizenship, and lack of felony convictions.

In addition to the address removal, the bill updates the application format by renumbering the requirements and ensuring clarity in the information needed from applicants. The effective date for this legislation is set for November 1, 2026.
