Correct Answer

B. Update the required registration information before performing another electronic act.

Detailed Explanation

Registration information must stay current. 19 NYCRR §182.4(a)(11) requires any update to information submitted to register electronic-notary capability to be made before performance of any electronic notarial act. In practice, changing vendors is not like changing ordinary residence data for a paper notary; the electronic registration must be updated first.
