The origins of the notary public trace back to the days of the Roman Republic. Today, the position remains important in our republic. As the overseer of the notary seal for South Dakota, our office produces this reference handbook for notaries in this State. This handbook contains South Dakota's notary statutes, definitions of terms commonly used in performing notarial acts, and the procedures for becoming a notary public in South Dakota. Referencing this booklet will help the notary have a greater understanding of the decisions, responsibilities, and obligations entrusted to each notary public. The oath of notary public carries a serious obligation. Once appointed and commissioned, a notary public becomes a public officer charged with "special trust and confidence in integrity and ability." To faithfully serve the public, the notary public must be knowledgeable about his or her responsibilities.
