What is the maximum diameter for a round notary seal?

• A. 1.75 inches
• B. 1.5 inches
• C. 2.0 inches
• D. 1.25 inches

Answer: (B)

In Arizona, the round notary seal is restricted to a specific maximum size to keep documents uniform and the imprint legible. The largest allowed diameter for the seal is 1.5 inches. This size provides enough room for all required elements—such as the notary’s name, the title “Notary Public,” the state, and the commission/expiration details—while still fitting neatly on typical documents. If the seal were larger, it would exceed regulatory limits and could render the stamp noncompliant. A smaller size, like 1.25 inches, would still be acceptable if it clearly contains all required information, but it wouldn’t reflect the maximum allowed size.
