The Rhode Island Application For Reappointment To Office of Notary Public (Notary Renewal) is an application that is necessary for the reappointment of a Notary Public in the state of Rhode Island. It is a legal form that must be completed and submitted to the Secretary of State of Rhode Island in order to obtain a new commission to serve as a Notary Public. There are two types of Rhode Island Application For Reappointment To Office of Notary Public (Notary Renewal): Renewal Application and Replacement Application. The Renewal Application is used to renew an existing Notary Public commission, while the Replacement Application is used to replace an existing Notary Public commission that has been lost, stolen, or destroyed.
