California Notary Bonds, California Notary Seals, and California Notary Stamps.
 
To become a California notary public, you need to first take a six hour state 
approved course. Then  you need to pass the california notary exam, and then 
you will need to purchase a notary bond, get your notary seal made, and purchase 
one or more notary journals.  Getting acknowledgment and jurat form pads would 
be highly recommended at this stage too. An ink less thumb printer would be 
another critical item to purchase.

The next step is to file your oath and notary bond at the county clerk's office. 
This step must be completed within (30) days of the commencement of your 
commission.

After you are done with all of the above steps, then you are free to market 
your notary services or provide notary services for your employer.
