Which group is required to record notarial acts in their county?

  1. All notaries

  2. Only commissioned notaries

  3. Only elected officials

  4. Only federal appointees

The correct answer is: All notaries

The requirement for notaries to record notarial acts in their county is applicable to all notaries. This is an essential part of a notary's duties, ensuring that there is a public record of the acts performed. Recording notarial acts helps maintain transparency and accountability, and facilitates the verification of the authenticity of documents when needed. In Pennsylvania, all commissioned notaries must keep a notary journal and record their notarial acts, which supports the integrity of notarial transactions across the board, irrespective of the notary's specific position or role.
