Under Part 182, records kept by a notary must be capable of being produced to:

A

The secretary of state and others as necessary in relation to the notary’s obligations

B

Only the county clerk of the county of qualification

C

Only the notary’s signature vendor

D

No one, because the records are always privileged

Correct Answer

A. The secretary of state and others as necessary in relation to the notary’s obligations

Detailed Explanation

Part 182 recordkeeping is not merely private retention. 19 NYCRR §182.9(c) states that records maintained pursuant to the Part must be capable of being produced to the secretary of state and others as necessary in relation to the notary public’s obligations under the Executive Law and the Part. For contrast, subdivision (b) governs the ten-year retention period, not who may require production.
