Advertising rules, immigration documents, the fee schedule and its no-fee exceptions, and the grounds for discipline. These are the questions the app shows a non-premium user for this part. The full bank carries 56 practice questions here plus 33 in the mock pool, each written from the Notary Public Handbook published by the California Secretary of State and carrying the verbatim provision it tests.
A non-attorney notary advertises notarial services in Korean. What does California law require?
Why: Government Code section 8219.5 requires the bilingual notice whenever a non-attorney notary advertises in a language other than English. The advertisement must also list the statutory fees a notary may charge for notarial services.
What else must appear in a non-English advertisement of notarial services?
Why: Section 8219.5 requires the statutory fees to be listed alongside the not-an-attorney notice. Listing the maximums makes overcharging visible to the reader.
