Powers & Duties of Notary 2026 Law Update

A safe deposit box is opened under Banking Law §335. When must a copy of the certificate be mailed?

A

It must be mailed within 5 days after opening.

B

It must be mailed within 10 days after opening.

C

It must be mailed within 20 days after opening.

D

It must be mailed within 30 days after opening.

Correct Answer

B. It must be mailed within 10 days after opening.

AI Explanation

The follow-up mailing deadline is ten days. Banking Law §335(1)(c) requires a copy of the notary’s certificate to be mailed within ten days after the opening to the lessee’s last known post-office address. For contrast, the thirty-day period in the same statute is the pre-opening notice period, not the post-opening mailing deadline.
