What is the term length for a notary in Ohio if he/she is an attorney?

10 years
5 years
Valid as long as they remain an Ohio resident or their principal place of business is in Ohio
20 years

The correct answer is: Valid as long as they remain an Ohio resident or their principal place of business is in Ohio

In Ohio, notaries who are also attorneys do not have a specific term length to their commission. Unlike non-attorney notaries, who have a term of 5 years, attorney notaries are only required to maintain their Ohio residency or have their principal place of business in Ohio to have their commission remain valid. This means that as long as the attorney notary continues to meet one of these requirements, their commission will not expire and has no set term length. The other options, A, B, and D, all provide specific term lengths, but they are not applicable to attorney notaries in Ohio.
