Steps
Navigate to notaries.dos.fl.gov/not001.html, the Florida Division of Corporations' Notary Commissions and Apostille/Certification search page.
Search using one or more available fields: Notary ID, Last Name, First Name, Commission No, or Zip Code, then submit.
Confirm the notary's name, commission number, and (if shown) expiration/status directly from the search result rather than a cached third-party notary directory.
For notarizations tied specifically to remote/online sessions, use the separate Remote Online Notary Search tool instead (see companion route) since standard commission status alone does not confirm RON authorization.
Recognize this is a legacy-style ASP web form with no documented public REST API — plan for manual or browser-automation lookups rather than scripted API calls.
Known gotchas
This tool covers general notary public commissions; it is a separate system from Florida's dedicated Remote Online Notary Search, and a valid general commission does not imply RON eligibility.
The page markup (Microsoft FrontPage-generated) is old-style HTML with no JSON/API response mode — do not assume a hidden JSON endpoint exists without confirming via network inspection.
