Incredibly, it is only for Alabama and Florida Lawyers who choose to take the Civil Law Notary exam in order to practice as both a Common Law Notary and a Civil Law Notary. It does not include Louisiana non-lawyer membership. I appreciate your offering to help and once again I am just stumped as to why there isn't a forum for we Louisiana non-lawyer Notaries to be found, yet...
Dear New Members:
Congratulations on passing the Civil-Law Notary examination. Below you will find some important information regarding the responsibilities of newly admitted Civil-law Notaries. Whether you were admitted to Alabama or Florida determines the proceedures to be followed. Welcome to NACLN!

Complete the Florida Department of State form DS-DE-42 (instructions). According to Florida Rule 1C-18.001, F.A.C., a Civil-law notary must designate a secondary protocol custodian, who must also be a Florida Civil-law notary (see list of practicing Florida Civil-law Notaries; or list of newly admitted Civil-law Notaries [fix me].

The Civil-law Notary appointment is for life, subject to compliance with Florida statute and rule and completion of the annual report. Download the Annual Report form DS-DE-39 [fix me]. The Department of State will remind you when the report needs to be filed.
