Which of the following is a requirement for obtaining a bond rider for a change of name?

Notify the surety
Provide a letter of intent
Submit a new application
Obtain a witness signature

The correct answer is: Notify the surety

Obtaining a bond rider for a change of name typically involves notifying the surety. This is essential because the surety must be aware of the change in name to update the bond accordingly. The bond itself is a legal agreement that guarantees the notary's performance, and any changes, such as a name change, must be officially recognized by the surety to maintain the validity of the bond. This requirement reflects the need for clear communication between the bondholder and the surety provider. By notifying the surety, the notary ensures that the bond rider will be issued accurately, thereby protecting their professional standing and the interests of individuals relying on their services. It is a fundamental step that ensures compliance with legal and professional obligations.
