In Arkansas, for how long should a notary retain a journal of their notarizations?

  1. 5 years

  2. 7 years

  3. 3 years

  4. 10 years

The correct answer is: 5 years

Notaries in Arkansas are required to retain their journals for a period of no less than 5 years. This is to ensure that the records of notarizations are available for inspection by the Secretary of State upon request. Options B, C, and D are all incorrect because they suggest a shorter or longer period of retention than the required 5 years. By retaining the journal for longer than 5 years, notaries may also put themselves at risk of potential privacy violations for keeping sensitive information on file for too long.
